Review :
Funny and Sad at the same time.One of the best Greek films of the 80s
This is one of the hidden jewels in the history of the -generally neglected- Greek Cinema. The superb Giorgios Kimoulis is an actor -in the film- with suicidal tendencies. Every time his tries to kill himself he is saved at the last minute by his best friend (Kostas Arzoglou in his best screen appearance). After a meeting with a mysterious person (Tassos Xinas) he receives a letter from a company that 'relieves desperate people from the pain', its service is to help people who cannot commit suicide and kill them for their own sake! He's afraid and slowly begins to understand through his fear of dying that it was the fear of living that made him want to kill himself.
Great performances, great soundtrack(some songs are written by Greek rock legend Pavlos Sidiropoulos) and tense directing. It's not entirely drama, it's more like a sour comedy. It is unlikely that viewers outside Greece will ever see this great movie.
