CGiii Comment

As unenjoyable as it gets....

Muddled, noisy, nonsense.

Too many characters, a muddled story and inept camera-work.

No surprises as to why few saw this. Unfortunately...we did.

The(ir) Blurb...

Marianna returns to Greece on a whim to surprise her boyfriend, secretly plotting to stay with him forever, while Nikos is using the carnival as an excuse to confess his love to his unsuspecting boss.
