Griechische Feigen

This is a very basic coming of age that follows Patricia (Betty Vergès) in an odyssey through beaches and hotels meeting people and doing shenanigans. It is from the very start that we can form a good idea of who this 19-year-old German girl is: she is seen coming out naked from the pool greeting people who were waiting for her, including a priest.

Patricia does not know who she is and what she wants, and this fact translates into her often mercurial personality, where she is seduced by spontaneity. From hitchhiking with two young men with dubious intentions, spending a day with a couple by the beach, to pulling pranks on individuals she randomly meets without any consideration whatsoever of consequences, Patricia's unbridled personality is her defining trait.

Another defining trait would seem to be her proclivity for undressing in front of strangers. Whether that is to seduce them or engage in shenanigans, most of the time she is seen with minimalistic attire. And this seems to be the only reason to watch the movie if you find her attractive, because it does not have much more to offer besides some peculiar moments here and there that strike more as episodic than as a result of an aim at narrative cohesiveness. It is not terrible, but it is by no means recommended.
