Insight / Dateline: July 14

Tonight SBS turns its attention the Greek crisis, on both Insight and Dateline.

As the country grapples with an uncertain future, we ask Greeks about the trust they place in their politicians – and themselves – to find a way out of the unfolding debt crisis.

What needs to change in order for the people to recover, and the nation to rebuild? How can Greeks be ‘good Europeans’?

Insight airs Tuesday at 8.30pm.

It will be followed by a Dateline report from Greece at 9.30:

While Europe’s politicians talk it out, Aaron Lewis is on the streets of Athens to see what it all means for those just trying to get on with daily life.

In the long queues for the often-closed banks, a man is trying to retrieve his last 50 Euros.

And a grandmother waiting for her medication says it’s the worst she’s been through… and she lived through the Second World War.

Aaron finds there’s a sense of community too, as everyone pulls together in spite of the challenges.

But that’s now and no one knows what will happen next. People wearily ask him what will be left for future generations.

The answer is in the hand of the politicians, but can they finally find the solution to a crisis that’s been escalating for years?
