Summary:
Two Athenians arrive on vacation and boards at Marina's
family home. Marina falls in love with one of the visitors,
Pavlos. But the local group of men do not approve of
the situation and continues their harassment of Marina and
forces the visitor to leave, but not before unintended
disaster to occur...
My Comments:
A 1956 movie made by the director of "Zorba the Greek".
Well
made and acted... but a little dated. Definitely
worth a watch. It
is a Greek tragedy.
