Demetra Giannakopoulos – Film and Theatre Writer/Director/Editor, Mediator, Tennis Tragic & Out Proud JOY Presenter

In this episode of For One Night Only (FONO), Pete Holmes talks with the host of JOY’s sports show “Sidelined” who describes herself as a tennis tragic, Demetra Giannakopoulos (Pronouns She/Her). Demetra was born in the Queen Victoria Hospital (now a women’s centre) in Melbourne and grew up in Richmond and then the Eastern suburbs of Melbourne. She is of Greek heritage and now lives in St Kilda. She worked as a litigation lawyer in the building sector for much of her career and is now a mediator in the same sector. She is also a filmmaker and has just finished writing, directing, and editing her first feature film titled “Love Rewind” – a new independent feature film made in Naarm, Melbourne, and set against the backdrop of the same-sex marriage postal vote. She has two new shows on JOY’s upcoming grid. “Kick It” premieres on July 15th at 4 pm and celebrates the 2023 FIFA Womens World Cup taking place in Aus/NZ and “Life Is A Disco” premieres on September 7th and is a series of intimate, personal interviews featuring people who are LGBTIQA+ and from culturally and linguistically diverse communities. Join us as she shares the mixtape of her life which includes songs from ABBA, Sherbert, Spandau Ballet, Madonna, Nirvana, Haris Alexiou, Ariana Grande, Donny Hathaway, and many, many more.
