After another intense fight between them, Stephanos is left alone to take care of his two younger siblings and Lucy, their family dog. Lucy is sick.

This is a delicately filmed tragic story, shot with realism and a strong sense of atmosphere. I found it beautiful and liked how it slowly built to its finale. The dialogue, the things unsaid, the characters were all very well handled. Has the feel of a feature in a short.
The important thing about this film is family, and I believed the characters! And, even though not a hugely engaging scenario, its a touching one. Pretty good film.
My favorite short of 2016, a modern version of ancient Greek tragedy... Happening in a warm day in Athens, in a modern single-mom family. A short where you have the time to sympathise with the characters, enter their lives, enter their pains... Proof that Greek cinema has a lot to give in the times of a big crisis...
