Girls who teach boys how to become men. Life that teaches girls in pain...

Life in ''Trouba''. The stories of women who can only have sex, but no love. Great actors as Tzeni Karezi, Giorgos Fountas, Despo Diamantidou, Manos Katrakis, Dimitris Papamihael are there. Katerina's Helmi performance is classic for the greek cinema. Mary Hronopoulou is great in this film. (Maybe the best performance in this movie). A big movie (more than two hours) full of emotions. A movie full of Greece, but not that Greece for tourists but for... travellers.
