One can see clearly negative reviews are by fascists and nationalists portrayed in this movie. Yes the migration problem was over exaggerated, but still a fantastic movie.
Christoforos Papakaliatis is a very talented Greek director who has made some of the most amazing series, including Maestro in Blue, of course. However, when it comes to movies none of his work really stands out. The same applies to Worlds Apart. The cast is excellent, cinematography too, the music is good, great attention to every detail (all typical traits of a perfectionist like Papakaliatis) but the plot is simply lackluster. In many instances, it is quite unrealistic, cliche and based on way too many "coincidences". Overall, it is an enjoyable movie to watch but it is neither thought or emotion provoking.
In a time when Greece is having some serious struggles comes three stories of people who are making romantic connections and their connections are effected by the struggle.
Some are good some are long lasting but not met to be and it would not be Greek it they didn't have a tragedy.
Thankfully JK Simmons was in this movie or I would not be able to pronounce anyone's name in this.
Funny romantic and very dramatic as the Greeks discuss the politics of what's going on in the country today while still trying to find love. Sounds very Greek, right? It was a very good movie.

I could not expect anything less from Christoforos Papakaliatis! Excellent performances,realistic dialogs and a touch of Greek magic even through difficult yet realistic situations.All three stories kept you waiting anxiously for the conclusion.You get a fairly good picture of how economical crisis has affected different age groups all through a love story. I have to mention the music that gives a more dramatic aspect to every scene. Finally the beautiful scenery of Plaka makes you fall in love with Greece and forget, even if for a moment,all the everyday trouble Greek people go through everyday. I highly recommend it to everyone-Greek or not.
Not the most profound of movies, but it's good nevertheless. Excellent performances throughout, even though the storyline feels a bit one dimensional at times. A little girl's bicycle at the end scene is heartbreaking.
