For Maria Papaliou, the founder and director of the annual Emotion Pictures documentary film festival in Athens, it has meant a life-long commitment to putting cameras in the hands of those who have been challenged with disability or the crushing mental and emotional wounds of war. She should know. Before using her European connections to launch Emotion Pictures in 2006, Maria had shown an enduring commitment to giving a voice to the disenfranchised through the medium of film.

Unsurprisingly, Maria is fond of saying that "diversity is the thing that unites us all."
