00:01Greece's demographic crisis may be the most serious issue facing the country
00:05and it is only getting worse.
00:07In rural areas and on the islands the population has been underway for years
00:11and schools are closing for lack of children.
00:14One such place is a small eastern Aegean island of Thymena
00:17where the elementary school has just two students this year.
00:20When the children are closing in the district, the school will be closed
00:24and when they pass some years later it will be closed.
00:28Thymena has no preschool or middle school.
00:31The island's six teenagers must take the boat to the neighboring Furni island
00:34every morning to attend school.
00:37The child is also alone in the school.
00:40He doesn't have any other children to play,
00:43to come, to have such an antithesis.
00:46He is alone.
00:47He has now gone to the first place and he plays with this.
00:51Just two first weeks connect Thymena with Athens.
00:54The journey takes at least eight hours
00:56and includes a transfer at Furni.
00:58When the weather turns bad, services often suspended,
01:01leaving residents stranded for days.
01:03Why do they leave the nation?
01:05Why do they leave the nation?

01:16Where do they leave university?
01:17Why do they leave that country compared to their academy?
01:19Why do they leave the nation here?
01:21Why do they leave the country for the past?
01:22Before they leave the country,
01:22all the Similarly and.
01:25the SUSs union, of course,
01:28from the supermarket in Athenia.
01:34We were older and there were many kids.
01:37At that time, the world did a lot of kids.
01:39We had a family who had 15,
01:42another 7, another 9, another 12, another 13.
01:46Now they do a little kid.
01:47You see, at school, two kids.
01:50For the years, we were 45 kids in the district.
01:54The island has about 140 permanent residents.
01:58Most of them, pensioners.
02:00All the kids who come here,
02:02they go to Athenia,
02:05they do their jobs,
02:06they go to the map.
02:07They don't live in the land.
02:09They don't live in the land.
02:12The Greek government has announced incentives
02:14for people to relocate permanently
02:16from the cities to the islands and villages.
02:18But with inflation rising continuously,
02:20these incentives don't appear to be enough.
02:22It's not just the issue of democracy.
02:27It's only in Thémena.
02:28It's everywhere.
02:29The smaller groups are only.
02:32The smaller groups are only.
02:33The smaller groups are only.
02:33The smaller groups are only.
02:35The smaller group of people use,
02:36The smaller groups,
02:36So much fun and rare.
02:37To raise the landler,
