The civil war and the subsequent vanquishing of communists and in general anyone who opposed the capitalist state of things is a crucial but sensitive subject for modern Greece, hence why its hardly ever depicted in film.
The film tries to be neutral, one on hand that makes sense because it's hard as a filmmaker to express a strong opinion in such a controversial subject whilst trying to make money out of this profession, especially if you're gonna side with the losers. On the other hand however, that takes the essence out of the film. The script is simple and bland, the acting performances aren't special, the scene takes are below average (overly dark).
In my opinion, it would have been a lot better if this film was compressed into half its duration with a quick pace. The musical theme was nice. In the cesspit that is Greek cinema with infinite garbage comedies, this film stands out as watchable. If you are a cinephile it doesn't offer something worthwhile, especially if you are not knowledgeable or interested in modern Greek history, forget it.
