I must admit that this film is one of the few or I might dare to say, the only Greek film which depicts in the most reliable way the harsh life at the night clubs of the Greek provinces. The movie presents some of the most crucial problems of our century such as easy and quick wealth, prostitution and the influx of immigrants. It focuses on the concerns of the young people of our time who feel hopeless and more alienated than ever before. Even though it is quite simple in its script it achieves to raise the interest of the viewer and even amuse him. The film is utterly realistic in every aspect and the performance of Nikos Kouris is absolutely stunning and thrilling. In addition the two leading actresses, Athena Maximou and Zoe Nalbanti having won the first and second acting awards respectively manage to give the viewer a sense of authenticity. Moreover the incredible soundtrack of the film with the song of the title by Stamatis Kraounakis makes it a movie to remember. The song itself has been a great hit among audiences with the amazing performance of Dimitra Papiou.All I all, I would say it has rightfully earned a place in the film industry.

This is my first review and I felt the need to write something about this disaster of a movie. I cannot believe the 10 star reviews. it is laughable! Yes there is some truth and underlying meaning regarding this cheap type of entertainment (Skiladika) BUT it is portrayed in the most stupid and shallow way possible. The acting is bad, scenario is super weak, it is so cliche and you have nothing to gain from this movie. Please do not waste your time watching this movie, instead go and watch Little England or something that actually celebrates the art of cinema instead of this cult tragedy.

By the greek standards of film making at the 90's this is one of the best and most complete artistic works of the decade. The photography of Haris Stavrou is captivating, the soundtrack by Stamatis Kraounakis and the songs singed by Dimitra Papiou was a big hit at the time. The portraying of the 'skyladika' which were and still are, the so called greek night clubs with live music its fantastic and realistic. But the center of the movie its the heartbreaking love between the two leading actors Maximoy and Kouris, which have great chemistry.

Nice movie different, Nikos Kouris quite as good as Maximu I liked and Markopoulos who in many places said things about life.

This movie is a fascinating portrayal of the "rembetika" clubs in the countryside of Greece. One of the best movies to come out of Greece in recent years, it showcases the dark side of life in some small, isolated towns during the harsh winter months. The soulful music, written by Stamatis Kraounakis, one of Greece's foremost artists, is another reason the movie is so good.
