The Republic

One of very few modern Greek films that dared take on the genre of crime adventure, Dimitris Tzetzas’ movie deftly handles riveting action while offering an unusual spectacle, featuring a parade of famous Greek actors.

Synopsis

Somewhere between politicians aching to “make good use” of the country’s mineral resources for a price, trafficking victims who end up in the country’s brothels and cops who take advantage of immigrants, starts a tale of revenge that will overthrow everything. Achilles is hired by corrupt journalist, Marios Sfikas to conduct illegal surveillances. Everything that follows smells of gasoline, fear and blood.
