As someone who remembers the half part of the 70's, I say that this show is accurate to the smallest details, era wise. After all, at that time, the world changed a lot slower. House decorations, clothes, everything is like it really was.
A great show for the younger generation to experience Greece in the years our country started to enter the Western world. Even with a dictatorship, Greece was a country with citizens eager to experience and be part of the modern world. Electric appliances bought with installments, TV enters our lives, young people rebelling against the dictatorship, women taking control of their lives and on the other hand older generations don't know how to react in this new world. We also see the fear in everyday lives. People who act like they support the dictatorship to protect their families, others who will gladly snitch the communists and all those opposed and the struggle to have a normal life in a time where a wrong word could ruin everything. It's a shame ERT doesn't have an option for English subs for this show.
I would like better acting in some scenes, but the direction is excellent. Olga Malea does great work.

One of the best greek tv shows. You really live with cast back to the late 60's and the decade of 70's. Very good show for the lost memory of greeks.

Because its exactly as it was...what a fantastic work !!! Thank you for the memories...! A perfect way to go back in time, for some a reminder and for others a way to see how life was when simplicity and innocence ruled. The accuracy of the settings,fashion,language and ideology of the times is amazing. The passing through the years is slow but detailed and all episodes maintain an easy to follow continuity and that, makes the whole series a part of your life ( especially if you have lived that era) you can easily binge a lot of episodes... the time will pass effortless. The camera moves magically around the actors a true feast for your eyes Thank you again.
