A Greek primary teacher who starts working in a call centre after being made redundant from her teaching job, becomes interested in the lives of people she has been calling as a debt collection agent.

The proof-of-concept short film for The Astronaut's Room "The Line", directed by Lukas Agelastos and written by Doris Avgerinopoulos and Lukas Agelastos, is out now and has attracted some very positive reviews!
