Few Greek films have penetrated the nation's collective unconscious like Tsiolis' unforgettable surreal comedy. Filled with endlessly quotable lines, razor-sharp satire and genuine empathy, it captured the realities of contemporary Greece through a singular cinematic language that remains impossible to imitate.

Synopsis

Two brothers-in-law, Panos and Michalis, set off from the industrial zone of Thessaloniki for the island of Thassos, where their families are spending the summer. A fleeting encounter between Panos and a young woman sends him into romantic turmoil, bringing their journey to an abrupt halt. Michalis calls for help from Antonis, their third brother-in-law and a PASOK party official, to meet them and help straighten things out.
