The anonymous producers of the short film called “Departhenon” said the Parthenon symbolised “nationalism, the cult of Antiquity” and “patriarchy”. They wanted to “find as soon as possible those responsible for this illegal shoot”, said the spokesman. A culture ministry spokesman told AFP that they had launched an investigation into the video, which shows a sexual encounter between two masked men at the UNESCO-listed site. Greek officials vowed Tuesday to track the people behind the filming of a gay sex scene on Athens’ Acropolis, the country’s most important archaeological site, after footage emerged online.
