Plot

A fickle and unfaithful husband, Antonis, tries to drive his rich wife crazy so that he can get his hands on her fortune, with the chauffeur and his lover as accomplices. In order to succeed, he fakes his own death, but fate, as usual, plays its own game.

Sinekatalog’s take

A scheming-husband thriller in the old Greek mould, where a faked death and a crowd of accomplices set the stage for irony. It runs on greed, suspicion and neat reversals of fortune. Fans of vintage black-and-white suspense with a cynical twist will find it enjoyable.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
