In February 2024, Greece approved same-sex marriage, a measure that gives these couples the same rights as heterosexual couples.
The text contains sparse mentions of the rights of trans people, who have since 2017 had the right to have their gender identity recognized.

@elsaltotv travelled to Athens and Thessaloniki to meet with members of the trans community and talk about their struggles. This shortdoc is part of our “Stories Breaking Borders” series.
