CGiii Comment
Do you want a mind-f*@k? Well...here it is!
Koutras delivers a fine film...with a multitude of twists and turns...skilfully masqueraded as prediction - very clever indeed.
There is a warmth and humanity...in a twisted sort of way.
Orfanou is perfection and Kokiasmenos is the epitome of rough dignity.
The epilogue is unnecessary...leave them guessing...but, there is still the f*@ked-up mind lingering behind.
A very fine film indeed.

The(ir) Blurb...
George is released from prison after 14 years of incarceration for a murder he committed in his small Greek village. He spends his first night out in a cheap downtown hotel in Athens. There he meets Strella, a young transsexual prostitute. They spend the night together and soon they fall in love. But the past is catching up with George. With Strella on his side he will have to find a new way out.
