The movie is well written, well directed and the acting is really good. It depicts in an excellent way how life was (and still is) for Greeks during the economic crisis without having to show homeless poor people starving. The fact that it is full of images that every 30 - 40 year old has from his childhood makes it familiar and cosy. In addition the information given about the civil war and it's repercussions are given in the exact same way as you would get it if you were raised in Greece (scattered fragments of each individual's "truth" now and then during family dinners ). Plus there is a plot twist in the end.
Above all it is a movie that you don't forget and that it stays with you.
