As perimenoun oi gynaikes!

A road movie, where all aspects of modern Greek (especially North Greek) common psyche are exposed. I consider it the best film ever made about modern Greek lifestyle, especially as far as men are concerned. It is not a comedy only. It is a drama, a surrealistic masterpiece and a documentary. Using humorous dialog, the actors, each representing different characters of Greek men, get exposed and become vulnerable. Their standards become fragmented and their weaknesses visible. The audience will love the characters. Acting, directing, script... Everything touches perfection. Difficult for non-Greeks to understand the meaning of this film, as this is hidden behind smart dialog that only insiders will recognize. A must see!

This Movie is unique in many ways but is mainly targeted towards Greek audience, and foreign audience will not be able to associate with it.

It portrays realistically the decadent society existing in Greece in 80s- 90s including: -Coffee and Smoking abuse -Song preferences (including subliminal battles between folk vs classical) -Political themes -exaggeration of behavior -Football fanaticism (Panathinaikos vs Olympiakos) -Regionalism (North vs South Greece)

Sometimes acting is horrible during the movie but this contributes to the cultness of the movie.

It is not easy to judge this movie without thinking of the consequences of these behavior in modern Greece, having that in mind this movie remains a Drama of major historical importance.

Three guys related from marrying three sisters (Batzanakides) meet in Northern Greece at Lake Volvi. The two of them (Panos and Michalis) have as have as destination the Thasos Island whilst the third guy (Antonis) comes to see what is happening with other two falling behind. Panos was struck with the view of a beautiful accompanied girl during the route. Antonis will fall in love too (with the one of the two nurses of Panos) Two old ladies (Sultana and Arhontoula) sitting nearby will act as DJ using a CD player offering very good popular music that suits to the evolution of the movie. Antonis will go to Porto Carras Hotel at Halkidiki with the two nurses for casino playing and will use the number that fails for Panos and Michalis.  The movie turns into a study on how men perceive marriage and the impact economics have on their life.  "Eheis dikaioma na meineis i na fygeis" (Music: Nicos Zervas, Lyrics: Stavros Tsiolis) was a later success with Antonis Remos.

It is a part of Greek tradition for hundreds of years that political life should be played as a parody or satyric drama in theaters and movies.

From the pioneer of comedy Aristofanis to the latest and one of the greatest (in my opinion) ever lived Stavros Tsiolis, dramatic comedy writers know that in order to succeed they have to be modern, topical and timely.

In this movie through the short trip of these men and through their conversations Stavros Tsiolis presents us through a parody the political and everyday life in Greece through the 80's and the 90's.

This play is a comedy but the creator for the first time in he brings elements from a tragedy such as the part of chorus.

closing this small Review i would like to say that for me this Film is almost perfect i would watch it every day without getting even close to get bored to it. It is defiantly a straight 10 but many people from outside Greece could never understand 100% what the writer did here.

No offense but the most of the Greeks cannot understand the satyric humor and the irony that this film presents us.

Great satire of the modern greek -tsifteteli, souvlaki, xavale- society given with a great political sense and fair doses of clever humour. The dialogues are inflammable and the interpretations are excellent. ( both Zouganelis and Boulas in the leading roles are very much worth being noticed)
