    LES FILS À PAPA
    (interview with Érick Rémy)
    It was Harry Belafonte who brought her to Quebec for the first time. For her, it was a surprise to find out that some of her songs were known. She continues her profession for 40 years and it has helped her extrovert herself. She never thought of her age nor of the moment when she will stop singing until the day she was asked about it. She knows that one day she’ll have to stop, but she avoids thinking about it. She owes everything to music and wishes to share this happiness with her fans. (18 m 18 s)

    LOUISE FORESTIER RENCONTRE NANA MOUSKOURI
    (Pres.: Louise Forestier)
    Nana is deputy at the European Parliament and representative for UNICEF. Her attraction to music dates back to her childhood. She has been deeply marked by the war. To sing and communicate with her public is a need. The poets and the musicians of her beginnings were a gift to her. She is not a composer, but she has her lyric writers and her musical influences. Her return to Greece in 1984 represents a divine moment after which she could have left the stage contentedly.
    Clips from "Oh, happy day", "Song for Liberty" and excerpt in concert from "Tu n’es plus là cet automne".

    LINEHAN
    (interview with Brian Linehan)
    Montreal represents the place where began her long love story with Canada. Toronto, it is the interview which she gave to the host twenty years ago when for the first time, she really opened herself.
    Nana considers the texts of Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen as true poems. She estimates herself blessed that intellectuals like Manos Hadjidakis and Nikos Gatsos wrote for her.
    The movie "Cinema Paradiso" is her story with her father projectionist.
    Nana does not forget the lesson that Maria Callas gave her and regrets that she finished her life that way. Nana refuses to be considered of her calibre and she defines herself simply as a singer.
    Since the beginning, Nana seeks for Love and found it through song.
    In life, there is much to learn and we never know enough to stop what we do.
    The meeting was pleasant. Nana is grateful with the host to move her and make her think as much. She points out that it is marvellous to meet people like him.
