Description On a black background, in big red capital letters, the title of the film reads: TRAGEDY OF THE AEGEAN. Below, in smaller yellow letters, the phrase “A sensational film by Vasilis Maros” appears. Further below lays a horizontal oblong rectangular photograph of soldiers leaving the battlefield. Below the photograph, the phrase “Special Award!” is recorded in yellow capital letters, with a big exclamation mark. The most striking aspect of the poster is the title, in drawn big red letters on a black background, like blood on a black sea. The sensational photograph of the soldiers in the battlefield, as well as the way the photograph is set, in a narrow strip, covering the poster’s width from one side to the other, explicitly convey the dramatic character of the film. This is one of the many posters issued for this film. All of them were designed by Giorgos Vakirtzis.
