Anna Maria Papacharalampous & Evelina Papoulia: Handwritten Messages to Petros Philippidis

Actresses Anna Maria Papacharalampous and Evelina Papoulia reportedly sent handwritten messages to actor and director Petros Philippidis after collaborations. These dedications were kept by Philippidis long before the scandal involving accusations against him erupted, leading to a highly publicized trial. Despite these past appreciations, both actresses have filed complaints with the court and requested exemplary punishment for their colleague. The morning show ‘To Proino’ on ANT1 revealed Papoulia’s handwritten message for the film ‘Efapax,’ written in a book of wishes: ‘I love you very much, always the best and you deserve everything, I am lucky to act beside you.’ Papacharalampous wrote: ‘I don’t know how to express it with words. Thank you for everything. Always be yourself and take care of yourself above all. Keep what you have. With lots of love.’ In her complaint, Papacharalampous details that Philippidis would enter her dressing room and urinate demonstratively at the sink in front of her. She describes being isolated from the rest of the cast through various tactics, having her own dressing room next to his, which he entered without knocking and sometimes locked behind him, repeatedly committing serious acts of sexual harassment while exploiting her youth, need to work, and fear he instilled in her.
