Plot
A daughter discovers her wealthy family is actually on the verge of bankruptcy and decides to charm a millionaire for his money in marriage. Soon she is torn between living a lie and keeping up appearances.
Sinekatalog’s take
A sharp social drama about a family keeping up appearances while its fortune collapses. It is elegant, ironic and quietly cruel about class, a standout for lovers of classic Greek cinema.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
