“After two and a half months in lockdown, everybody was happy to be back at work.”
Man Of God was two days out from the start of production when Greece went into lockdown in mid-March, so when restrictions were lifted at the end of May producer Alexandros Potter knew he had to act fast.

“We’d scheduled the Greek release for November through Feelgood Entertainment,” said Potter.
