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.

Today’s video features Chrysovalantis Stamelos who is a filmmaker and former producer for MTV Networks. He has also founded, with his partner Paras Chaudhari, the independent New York-based film production company Crescent Street.
