Directed by Nikos Koundouros, this is the story of bank clerk Thomas (Dinos Iliopoulos), who struggles to keep up with the pace of modern life. On New Year’s Eve, a comedy of errors ensues when he’s confused with a crime boss named The Ogre. Now, men respect him, and women want him, but sooner or later, he’s going to pay for this.

Considered a Greek cinema classic — a mix of comedy and dark themes that initially confused audiences but later gained respect. It was the international reviews that changed how people saw it in its homeland — this may be a send-up of noir films and a slapstick comedy in parts, but wow. It ends on a really dark note. Also, some refer to this as The Dragon.

Extras include an introduction from Jonathan Franzen (2025), interviews with critic Christina Newland and Greek film expert Dimitris Papanikolaou, as well as a reversible sleeve featuring designs based on original posters, a limited edition booklet featuring new writing by Andréas Giannopoulos and extract from Jonathan Franzen’s Freedom. It’s a limited edition of 2500 copies, presented in full-height Scanavo packaging with removable OBI strip leaving packaging free of certificates and markings. You can get it from MVD.
