“I am happy that such an important film production has been completed. We see such collaborations as the best way to promote our country internationally. For GNTO, synergies in large productions with an impact abroad are a priority and we will continue to support similar projects in the future,” GNTO Secretary General Dimitris Fragakis said.

“The experience of shooting in Greece was truly unforgettable! We were lucky to work in a place of such history and amazing nature… We look forward to sharing the images of this beautiful country with the French spectators,” director François Uzan said.

“On sourit pour la photo” is a co-production of Radar Films, Unagi Productions and Blonde Productions, starring Jacques Gamblin, Pascale Arbillot, Pablo Pauly, Agnès Hurstel and youtuber Ludovik.
