Description

To Nisi (Greek: Το Νησί; English: The Island) is a Greek television series based on the best-selling English novel The Island by Victoria Hislop airing on Mega Channel. The series premiered on 11 October 2010 to record ratings and critical acclaim. It is one of the most expensive Greek television productions ever with a budget of €4 million.
Conception
The series is one of the most expensive television shows in Greek television history with a budget of €4 million.[1][2] The Island author Victoria Hislop had previously received offers from Hollywood as high as £300,000 for the movie rights to the novel, although she opted instead to grant the rights to Mega Channel for a fraction of the price in return for some artistic control.[3]
Initial thoughts by Mega Channel were to make a film out of the novel, but they finally decided upon a 26 episode television series instead.[2] Mirella Papaeconomou primarily took on the script's adaptation, and with Hislop's permission added stories and characters that do not exist in the novel to make the series long enough for a full season.[2] Hislop actively participated in the entire process with ideas, suggestions, and observations.
Filming

The direction of photography was undertaken by Vaggelis Katrizidakis.[4] Cretan director Thodoris Papadoulakis convinced Mega Channel to keep Athens out of the filming by having the entire series shot on location in Crete, arguing that Spinalonga recreates a natural setting.[2] Filming began in December 2009 and is scheduled to conclude in December 2010, primarily taking place in Plaka, Spinalonga, upper Elounda, and Agios Nikolaos.[2][4]
Sets portraying the villages from 1939 to 1957 were designed by stage director Antonis Halkias and his colleagues.[4] For authenticity purposes, as many scenes as possible were shot on location in Plaka and Spinalonga, including scenes of the port where the boat from the small fishing village of Plaka arrives, as well as the market streets.[2] Shooting for many of the segments in Old Plaka took place in constructed sets resembling the old village in upper Elounda.
Costuming and music
Xanthi Kontou and Maria Kontodima undertook the costuming for the series.[4] In order to gain an accurate portrayal of the period between 1939 to 1957, Kontou and Kontodima researched the styles for eight months resulting in about 2,000 unique costumes.[4] The principal composer of series' musical score is Minos Matsas.
Synopsis

Much of the series is based on the old leper colony on the island of Spinalonga in Crete, Greece.
Based on the novel The Island by Victoria Hislop, the series takes place on the island of Spinalonga, off the coast of Crete, and in the village of Plaka which lies within swimming distance across it. To Nisi tells the story of Alexis Fielding, a woman on the cusp of a life-changing decision. Alexis knows little about her family's past and has always resented her mother for refusing to discuss it. She knows only that her mother, Sophia, grew up in Plaka, a small Cretan village, before moving to London, England. Making her first visit to Crete to see the village where her mother was born, Alexis discovers that the village of Plaka faces the small, now deserted island of Spinalonga, which she is surprised to learn was Greece's leper colony for much of the 20th century. At Plaka, Alexis meets an old friend of her mother's, Fotini, who is prepared to tell her the entire tragic story of her family that Sophia has spent her life concealing—the story of Eleni, her grandmother, and of a family torn apart by war and passion. Alexis discovers how intimately she is connected with the island, along with the horror and pity of the leper colony which was once there.
