Very melodramatic and already hopelessly dated, this drama about "wild youth" in Greece, who don't have much future. One just got out of jail and wants to start all over, but society doesn't seem to let him. Another one is a pretty good boxer and wants to start a career in boxing, but his father wants him to work in his garage. (the boxing scenes are very exaggerated, with lots of blood and boxers knocked down almost every round. Maybe inspired by "Rocky"?) The film probably wasn't made with a lot of money, as you can clearly see in the boxing scenes. Despite of all its weaknesses, the director Nikos Foskolos proves to be a very good storyteller. The characters and the story never get boring.
I found that the dated dress code, the melodramatic way of acting and the cliches in the movie had a certain "campy" charm. Worth watching.
