Director: – -, 1921
Cast: n.a.

Synopsis:

The film tells the story of an Athenian family who wants to participate in the war. The husband volunteers and the wife soon follows as a nurse. Although the film was shot with professional actors (the two stars are actually Russian actors), the locations and soldiers are real. Excerpts from real newsreels that the Gaziadis brothers produced during the Asia Minor campaign have also been used.

The Greek Miracle is a rare example of a fiction film shot before WWII in Greece with both actors and real extras and settings.
