In this deeply moving episode of the Doralicious Show, Irene sits down with filmmaker James Axiotis to talk about his upcoming film Georgia, a project rooted in his own extraordinary life story and the hidden history of Greece’s adoption scandals of the 1950s and ’60s.
Born in Athens to an unwed mother and sent abroad during a time when thousands of Greek children were quietly adopted out of the country, James reflects on growing up Greek-American, building a 40-year career in film and television. Georgia tells the story of his mother’s final act of love—going to court to say goodbye to her baby before releasing him for adoption.
Together, Dora and Irene explore the complexity of adoption, identity, grief, and resilience, and why these conversations still matter today. Honest, emotional, and necessary—this is an episode that stays with you long after the mic goes off.
