Prefaced by the controversial Greek director, Dimitris Kollatos, this film adaptation of the theatrical play of the same name depicts the scandalous life of Stylianos Kornaros, the sinful Bishop of Preveza. In the context of the shady activities between the Greek church and the economic oligarchy, The "Saint" of Preveza portrays the suspicious deals and the erotic vices of a man defined by earthly pleasures. Here, blasphemous and deviant Stylianos Kornaros does everything in his power to fulfil his vile aspirations, always making sure that he is the one who is pulling the strings.—Nick Riganas
