A six-episode documentary series, by Eleni Varvitsioti and Victoria Dendrinou, journalists and authors of the book “The Last Bluff”. The dramatic events of 2015 come to life again and the moment when Greece came within a breath of leaving the euro. With unique access to the people who made the decisions, from Athens and Brussels, to Berlin and Washington, dozens of protagonists speak without filters. What really happened? How close did we come to collapse? What mistakes were made? In this series, the narration is done exclusively by those who lived the crisis from the inside - with memories still vivid and the distance of time bringing honesty, revelations and conflicts. Tension, suspense, mistakes and last-minute decisions. The documentary tells the story that changed not only Greece - but also Europe itself.
