This story is the subject of a documentary movie called Freedom Besieged by Canadian director, Panayotis Yannitsos. Apart from Peter Economides, the film features Noam Chomsky, Peter Diamandis (Singularity University), the Greek Prime Minister, Jordan Peterson and others. It is also a case study included in course material at a few major universities, including McGill in Montreal.
