A wealthy monarchist filming in Athens during the Fascist occupation, Angelos Papanastassiou used his camera to document an occupation he detested as an affront to Greek sovereignty. Using a clandestine 16mm film camera and daily risking his own life, and the lives of his family, Papanastassiou documented Nazi atrocities in Athens throughout the German-Italian occupation, during which time his daughter, Loukia, was born. We follow her first steps and see the family's life juxtaposed over this tragic chapter of modern Greek history.

István Bibó (1911-1979) is widely regarded as the greatest political thinker of 20th century Hungary. During the Hungarian Revolution, he acted as the Minister of State, for which he was sentenced to life in prison after the Soviets restored Communist rule; he was later released as part of a general amnesty. Forgács provides an introduction to his life and work using processed found footage shot by contemporary amateur filmmakers in Hungary. A Bibó Reader is part 13 of Private Hungary.
