Barba Giannis, o kanatas

7/10

Nostalgic old-time Athens story

A nostalgic love story that has inspired a famous old-time song revives in this movie, under the sun of Athens, at the neighborhood of Plaka, under the Acropolis.

The main heroes are a young couple, whose love does not meet the approval of the girl's strictly traditional upper-class family. The wandering pottery seller, who has a donkey as his job helper, likes to make spicy remarks and especially enjoys gossiping, is asked to play the role of the matchmaker, despite the fact that himself was facing a love without response. Nice music accompanied by the guitar and lots of singing, along with an amazing scenery of Athens at a time when three story houses were a rarity, take the viewer for a trip through time.
