Insomnia: A MUST WATCH Short Film With The Aftermath Of The Cephalonia Quakes - VIDEO

From the countless articles about the aftermath of the Cephalonia quakes, perhaps none captures the present state of the island better than the short documentary film that was created by a German family that live on the island.

The 5-minute film was produced by Tim and Nils Kullack, both in their twenties, and they received a lot of support from their parents Daniel and Alexandra. The family is originally from Germany but has made Cephalonia its home for a number of years now. Reference to Enet article Click HERE.

Accompanied by a haunting soundtrack the video shows the extensive damage caused by the two 6.0 magnitude (plus) earthquakes that came within a week of each other on the island. Aside from these two major tremors that have severely damaged buildings, roads and caused a number of landslides, the island has also been shaken by hundreds of smaller aftershocks.

All this destruction, together with a fear that an even bigger quake may occur, has kept island residents on edge. Luckily only a few injuries were reported and we did not mourn any fatalities, nonetheless hundreds of families have been living in cars and tents for over a week in poor weather.

(Let us not forget that it is still winter season in Greece).
