Greeks Gone West is a series of video vignettes the US Embassy in Athens made about the world of work in the US. These videos aim to improve the understanding of US society through the prism of Greeks and Greek-Americans with interesting work lives while also showing possibilities during a time, in Greece, when life seems full of limitations and frustrations.

Each video shows how the participants came to do what they do and how they managed to get through the difficult parts of their journey, whether a fashion designer, a film director, an HIV doctor and several other people. They share their experiences and views and talk about their next plans.
