A film by Tasos Psarras.
By the 14th century, the Byzantine Empire was, if not on the verge of actual collapse, at least seriously decadent and clearly on its last legs. The hungry wolves of Europe were preparing to dine on its corpse, and as a result the Byzantine army and its allies were constantly engaged in battles and skirmishes. In this story, a widow lives in the 14th-century Byzantine village of Doxobus with her son Xenos. She forms a relationship with a village elder, and when she gives birth to the elder’s son, her son from her previous marriage is sent to live in a monastery.
A free adaptation of the story of Oedipus. Antigone accompanies her father on a journey outside the borders of Greece. There she finds work with a group of wandering artists. Antigone tells the audience, with a magic lantern, the story of Oedipus. Ismene comes to Greece and begs Antigone to return, because Eteocles and Polynices are at odds. Antigone returns and finds her brothers killed. The wandering artists bring Oedipus back to Greece
The play is a farce that follows the attempts of a spendthrift couple living in debt to get out of financial trouble by keeping the entire amount of an unexpected inheritance without giving anything to their creditors. Unbelievable disguises, entanglements, and twists go hand in hand with physical and verbal gags, mainly from the protagonist. There are many good laughs with the protagonist's sudden entrances. First, Tsivilikas hangs from the ceiling, covered in gunpowder, then Tsivilikas bursts in wearing a sombrero as a Mexican cousin and sings Baila morena, then appearing dressed in rags because he lost his clothes in the river, and later still dressed as a monk with a belly from fasting too much.
Set during the Greek civil war. A villager is forced to leave his house and property and go to Thessaloniki with his daughter and son. They find refuge in an old building with hundreds of other people. They live a miserable life as the daughter becomes a whore, and the son has to work.
(Aka 'Pandora') Vissilis wanders around in the dilapidated house, where he was raised by his uncle Kostis. His mind is floded with memories of a time long-gone.
