BBC News - Tourism helping shadow puppets come into the light
This video is about Indonesian, not Greek, shadow puppets. But there are shadow puppets (Karaghiozis, Καραγκιόζης) in Greece. There is a display of shadow puppets at the main building of the Museum of Greek Folk Art in Athens (Kidathineon, in the Plaka). There is also the Haridimos Shadow Puppet Museum - Theatre which I must go and visit next time I am in Athens.
