Speaking during a recent press conference in Athens, Mrs. Gerekou said that information on the necessary permits would be posted on the culture ministry’s website. In addition, the process of filming in archaeological sites or museums would be shortened to 10 days, except for UNESCO-protected monuments like the Acropolis of Athens. The ministry is also considering setting up a film commission to provide incentives, the deputy culture minister added. During the same press conference it was also revealed that the new National Museum of Modern Art (EMST) under construction in Athens will open at once instead of by inaugurating sections. Mrs. Gerekou said on that efforts are made to speed the process of completion along.
