Plot

George (George Kimoulis) is a confused young man who thinks he is faced with thousands of dead ends. In reality, however, he faces the same problems as most young people.

Sinekatalog’s take

A wry Greek coming-of-age comedy about a confused young man who thinks he faces dead ends everywhere while sharing the common problems of his generation. It mixes humor with social observation. Relatable and quietly funny.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
