Apostolos Kamitsakis, the “Father Dimitrios” at the Cafe of Joy, spoke to Faye Skorda about the sexual harassment he experienced by a well-known director.
“I had the reflexes to be able to get over it. It is not recent, it was made in 2017. I had some minor audition experience, but I was finishing school. I went to the audition for the play “Frankenstein”, as he called us. This film sounded like it was going to be done a long time, he pulled her by the hair.
At the hearing I was asked to say the monologue and then somehow - indirectly - asked me to undress or masturbate or urinate at some angle, saying the monologue, a condition that went nowhere.
I heard what he was saying, I didn't pay attention to him, he didn't force me to save and take off my clothes, but he kept giving me that choice. You make a decision and say I won't, finally. The hearing ended and I left,” said Apostolos Kamitsakis, among others.
