“I was finding a language to communicate and little by little during the shooting I started to find the way and feel much more myself”
On the occasion of both the series “Doctor” and the direction he signs for the show Humans, Konstantinos Markoulakis was invited to Studio 4 on Wednesday. The actor and director referred to the recent television coexistence with two children they have Down syndrome in the final episode of Alpha’s drama series.
In particular, Mr Konstantinos Markoulakis he confessed that “it was an unimaginable experience! Unthinkable! It hasn’t happened to me before and I have to admit that I’m not very familiar because it hasn’t happened. I mean guys have come into the dressing rooms and stuff but I haven’t been around a human for so long.”
“We are talking, of course, about Loxandra who is a devil and the boy is her friend, her real friend. Loxandra is an awesome devil! I also happened to see them in a show by Eleni Efthymiou, “Horses in Love” and if anyone from the people who are in charge listens to me, this show should be staged again. A very deep show about people with disabilities but in terms of how love works in such cases.”
“It was terrible. In other words, I was finding a language to get along and little by little during the shooting I started to find the way and to feel much more myself. Because in reality what you understand is that you are moving. This person is, well, in place. I went the day before yesterday and read a fairy tale in a club for disabled people in Holargos and there were 70 people in there. An awesome experience for me, then we were happy and hugging and talking and talking. I could see how very easy and smooth it is for the people who work there to exist and communicate. I told them how humbled I felt in relation to what I do in everyday life and in relation to what they do. It’s completely gone and I feel very capable of dealing with it now.”
“I hope and believe that watching this episode helped and the series does. I think the “Doctor” tries to make what he makes be of some quality, some value. We received many messages and I was very moved by the fact that they have a relationship, they live together in the same house”, Konstantinos Markoulakis also added to the entertainment magazine of public television.
