Arpa Colla poster
6.1 FILM

"Arpa-colla" in Greek literally means "Grab and stick", a phrase used to show something that has been done quickly and therefore isn't good enough. This is what the 2 main heroes of the film are doing. The one is a director(Giorgos) and the other an author(Kostas) with communistic ideas, who has won a prize at a festival. They both want to make a movie for the cinema. But every idea they have never comes true, because every time they meet someone to whom they tell their idea, they change their mind, and they want to make a totally different movie, ideas varying from political cinema to Greek historical dramas and modern films with motorcycle gangs. Not a bad attempt for the Greek cinema of the early 80's, which starts to wake up from the hibernation of the 70's.

Where are you going, little George, in this weather? poster
FILM

Stathis Psaltis, as a Greek, pulls the oar and searches for the Ithaca promised to him by Giorgakis. Giorgos Konstantinou holds on tightly to the last loaf of bread so that the IMF doesn't take it away from him. Martha Karagianni, outraged by everything she sees on television, decides to throw it away. Kostas Evripiotis feels the "nightmare in the kitchen." Dinos Spyropoulos is a farmer who searches alone but finds nothing. "Julia's maid" Christina Psalti describes what happened in the pink room, and Stathis Psaltis, drinking champagne, wonders "to be or not to be." But Greeks never bow their heads. They forget all their problems at a folk festival with Sofi Zanninou.

Charilaos (Orestis Makris), a retired officer with very strict and conservative principles, raises his four daughters with... military discipline, taking care of their culture, their appearance and their good behavior. Despite all his desire to marry them, he does not leave them anywhere alone, as a result of which no man approaches them. His wife, Efterpi (Eleni Zafiriou), as well as his friend and neighbor Xenophon (Pantelis Zervos), make remarkable efforts to convince him to change his tactics, but he insists on his very conservative behavior. But when the conversation reaches the well-to-do sister of Kalliopis (Georgia Vassiliadou) who has been living in Chicago, USA for years, everything turns upside down. She returns to Athens and undertakes to modernize the general's house, as well as help the four girls (and her nieces) to be rehabilitated.
