Summaries

An entire social microcosm lies in plain sight within a decrepit courtyard house in a humble mid-1960s Athens neighbourhood. Love, desire, and deceit are vital components of this small world. However, is dreaming meant for everyone?

In a run-down yet fragrant Athenian yard of a modest mid-1960s courtyard house, an entire social microcosm unfolds, hidden in plain sight. Here, you can easily spot the avaricious landlady and the perpetually unemployed family man, the chaste and honest belle of the building, the stalwart lad who secretly loves the girl of his dreams, the deluded father, and the dazzling but shallow film star. Ultimately, love and hate, desire and passion, honesty and deceit are all essential components of this little world nestled in the heart of the neighbourhood. However, is dreaming meant for everyone?—Nick Riganas
