The film is based on an actual event. A few years ago in a night club a mobster with the help of his brother murdered three policemen over a “special request”.
The director interprets this event in his own way demonstrating that his action was nothing else than a desperate reaction against the system that was oppressing him and aimed at his final annihilation. The night club where the massacre took place resembles a graveyard where the hopes of desperate Greeks are buried. Scenes that are reminiscent of ancient Greek tragedy underline the fate of a nation that is wasting itself in murderous fights, “special requests” in night clubs full of snitches, hookers, pimps and tough guys. |
