      During a recent interview, Economides said: "Some of the actors who partecipate are not professional ones. The majority of them are friends of mine, too. I wanted to expose a raw feeling giving a more human approach during the scenes".

    9/10
    A Greek film noir worth seeing.
    I definitely will never understand the reviewers that rate this movie with one star. It definitely can't be one of the worst movies they've seen. The movie is well directed and with multiple twists. Actors (especially the protagonist) are doing a great job. Many funny scenes especially if you're Greek.
