Dir. Renos Haralambidis. 2010. 90 mins. DCP. In Greek with English subtitles. With Renos Haralambidis, Giannis Zouganelis, Takis Spyridakis (Kosmas), Alkis Panagiotidis, Dimitris Poulikakos, Dimitris Verikios, Titika Saerigouli. The Marx Brothers meet Aristophanes in this offbeat road movie. Two down-and-out undertakers, an unsuccessful actor and an ex-con join forces in an effort to turn around their failed lives. On the promise of a large fee, they fulfill the dying wish of a wealthy Greek man to carry his body on foot for burial in his remote home village many miles from Athens. Much goes wrong along the way, but when the journey becomes an opportunity for self-discovery, the four come away with more than they bargained for.
