“For those who like their humor down and dirty.” Lively Arts

Filmmaker Nikos Zapatinas had a Greek blockbuster on his hands when he released this comedy of raunchy and scatological misadventures.

A madman (Giorgos Kimoulis) and a petty criminal (Nikos Kalogeropoulos)are each given leave: The former to see the outside world and the latter to attend his mother’s funeral. Or so they are told.

Their fortunes and worlds collide, along with their cars, in the middle of nowhere. Little do they know, but an over-sexed psychiatrist and his attractive assistant are observing their movements as part of a study into behavioural patterns, as well as two cops hoping to locate a stash hidden by the petty criminal.

Expect plenty of diabolical situations and did-they-just-do-that moments in a comedy that refuses to let up from start through to finish.

About the Director:
Born in Athens in 1945, Nikos Zapatinas studied Mathematics at the Aristoteleion University of Thessaloniki, Cinema at Paris III and Music at various academies.
