"There is corruption in every era." "This doesn't mean that it's a corrupted era." "This film represents our days corruption through real events." "Only the names of the characters are fictional." " They're watching us!" " Tell her to go inside." " This is a funeral, not a party." " I already told her twice." "What's with your old lady?" "Is she leaving or are we?" "I'll see what I can do." "Mum, take aunt and go inside." "The kids are uncomfortable." "Why are they uncomfortable?" "They're dancing just fine." " You've spoiled all our fun." " Leta, please go." "Attend to your friends." "I told you that you can have a party... only in my presence." "I'm not leaving you alone." " This only happens in our home!" " This is my home!" " You made her furious!" " I don't care." "I won't have the things I hear about happen to me." " Kostas broke up with Rea?" " Why?" " I don't see him coming." " He'll be here." "Don't worry." " Want a sweet?" " Don't you have any liqueur?" " Take mine." " No problem, I'll bring some." " Why is Kostas late?" " He'll make an appearance." "You're so right!" "That's our difference." "If I were late, no one would care." " Fishing for compliments?" " Not at all." "I am a nerd." "Isn't that what you told Leta once?" "Leta can say whatever she wants, I told her nothing like that." "I told her that we don't click." "I prefer Kostas' type." " The punk, as you've called him." " I said that he's a teddy-boy." " Give me your glasses." " Great." " That must be Kostas." " Leta, the doorbell!" "Come!" "Guys, Kostas is here!" " Who is that?" " Petrakis' son." "Remember the scandal with their divorce?" "Come say hi to my mother." "I told her not to bring him here." " Mum, this is Kostas." " Good evening." " Enjoy yourselves and behave." " What are you saying, mum?" " He doesn't seem bad." " You don't know him." "Last summer he was arrested and they cut his hair." "My mum is in a bad mood." "What will you have?" " What are you drinking?" " Holy water." " Is the nerd here, too?" " Please, don't tease him." "Why tease him?" "Hello, Petros." " What should I bring you?" " Holy water!" "What will happen?" "There's no pity for us." "There's no food, no alcohol..." "I tried to light a cigarette and Leta's mum told me..." ""Kid, no smoking in here"." " What do you want to happen?" " Let's leave." " Go where?" " To Petros' home." "That's a good idea." "He doesn't want us to go." "Last time we made a mess." "If you want to go, leave everything to me." "Lets get out of here, we can't even dance!" " Want to go to the nerd's house?" " It's far away." " My car only fits six." " We'll go with mine." " You have a car?" " I'll find one." "Come with me." "You convince the kid." " Are you leaving?" " I'll be back." "Let's go, Kostas." " Worried that he will leave?" " Yeah, that's it!" "Do your parents still leave every weekend?" "Why?" "What's in your mind?" "Go to the corner." "If you see anyone, hiss." " Let's try another neighborhood." " Why?" "Are you scared?" "Come with me." "They lock the damn things!" "This was perfect for us!" "That's mine!" "Let's go further down." "There's too much light here." "This is perfect." "It will fit us all." " What to we do now?" " We have the perfect tool." "Look at you!" "You're acting like an amateur!" "Do you have matches on you?" "Come and light for me." "From he other side." "Light a match." "Give me your cigarette pack." "Put it out, let's go." "Get down!" " We're busted!" " What did we want the car for?" "Open the door and run!" "They're leaving." "We're saved." " He's blind!" " Let's get his plates." "Ask him for his driving license." " You made them leave!" " They want to leave." "And they're right to do so." "We got depressed in here." " Where's my jacket?" " On the couch with the others." " Are you leaving, too?" " Everyone is leaving." " They're leaving!" "Happy now?" " Did I make them leave?" "The cars are ready." "Goodnight, Mrs. Papadopoulou." " Farewell." " Bye, Leta." "See you tomorrow." " I'll go, too." " Where are you going?" "It's late." "Quickly, Petros!" "Keep it down!" "No need for the whole neighborhood to hear us!" "Let's go inside." "Are you coming?" "Are you sure your parents won't come?" "Positive!" "They might not even come tomorrow." " Where's your mood tonight?" " I'll get it back." "Let me help." " Let's go." " No improvement?" "Guys, come here!" "Cigarettes!" "What do you want to drink?" "Hear me?" "Themos, leave those." "I'll bring you some." " I want help with the glasses." " Don't worry, I'll come." "Guys!" "Listen to me, guys!" "Be quite!" "Before we leave, we'll put everything back in place." "Not like the last time!" "Don't worry, I'll clean up." "Let's go get the drinks!" "I'm going." " You show great interest." " I feel obliged to." " That's what I'm saying." " I'm happy we agree." "You came..." " Where are the glasses?" " In the cupboard." " I've put you in trouble." " I like trouble." " You love me that much?" " Why this question now?" " I'm just comparing." " What?" "Me and Kostas?" " He always defeats me." " Not always." "Kiss me." "Come." "What did you think?" "I came to help." "The guys want to drink." "Give him a couple of bottles." "I need glasses." "I'm going." "Go tell Kostas what you saw." "It wasn't something bad." "I was just telling the guys to play spin the bottle... kiss and have some fun." "You started without the bottle." "You made it simpler." "Come here..." "For the fun of it." "Just bring the glasses." "We're thirsty!" "What happens now?" "What if he tells Kostas?" "Let him." "Let's get everything inside." "Come and get it!" "Have fun, enjoy yourselves and laugh!" "Come and get it!" "Wait for your turn." "Petros, open a bottle." "We need ice, too." "Take turns!" "Come and get it!" "You're here, too!" "Give me a kiss." " Pour me some more." " You drunk!" "Kostas, the last drop for you." "All women are yours." " I've got something to tell you." " Talk." " I'll tell you later." " The bottle!" " I'll open another one." " We'll have a funeral here, too." "Come here!" "Stop dancing!" "Keti, Nitsa, come here." "We're playing spin the bottle?" "Listen to this!" "Whoever is too shy, her escort can take her inside to kiss her." "Bisbiras, stop it!" "That won't happen!" "To play the game decently." "I say we better kiss here, so we can all see." "Silence!" "We'll kiss here." "Maybe if you're not too busy, you'll join us." "Keep it down!" "Ready?" "I'll get started." " Maria!" " You lucky woman!" "Where will we kiss?" "On the cheek or the mouth?" "On the mouth!" "Just a minute." "Let's ask our host." " Wherever you please." " On the cheek it is." " Why?" " What's your problem?" "Majority rules!" " On the mouth!" " The people rule!" "On the mouth." "The people spoke." "Maria, your turn." " Go on, Maria." " Take it easy." " Petros!" " Get yourself together." "Are you too embarrassed to kiss me on the mouth?" "Not at all, since you're not embarrassed." " Good for you!" " Thanks." "I'll keep you in mind." " You're reading..." " What do you want me to do?" "It's 12 o' clock and she's still out." "What if someone sees her?" "What will they say?" "Please, don't upset me." "As if I'm not worried enough for her." "If you don't want to worry, don't let her go out." "That must be her." "Don't shout." "Give her a scold, but control yourself." "Good evening..." "You must be Mrs. Papadopoulou, Leta's mother." " How can I help you?" " I'm looking for Maria." "I'm her father." "The janitor from your next door building." " You had a party here." " Everyone left." "Even my daughter is not back yet." "We got worried." "It's 12 o' clock." " They'll be here any minute." " Thank you and forgive me." "This is my side and that is your side." "When the bottle points at me, you kiss me." "When it points at you, I kiss you." "Is that a deal?" "I'll go." "Do we need to spin the bottle to kiss?" "You're right!" "I never thought about that." " What's wrong?" " Do you think something's wrong?" " Are you being honest with me?" " As much as you are." "You're smart." "I like that." "Beautiful and smart." " Want to go inside?" " No." "Why?" "Are you angry at me?" " Giving me the drill?" " Why?" "I like you." "I don't want us to spoil the party." "Acting all decent now?" "It seems that the nerd has rubbed of on you." "Bisbiras!" "Turn the lights on." " Now?" " Now." "Tall, change that record!" "We'll fall asleep." " Get up, Georgia!" " Are we going to dance?" " You'll strip for us." " Great idea!" "Get up!" "I want to see you move!" " Get up!" " What happened?" "Georgia will strip for us!" "I'm not stripping again!" "Let someone else do it." "Who?" "You have the best body!" "Tall, play that record!" " Go ahead!" " No way!" "If you don't strip, I will." "Take it off!" "Georgia, your turn!" "Keep it down!" "If she won't do it, I will." "Come on, Suzy." "On our arms!" "Guys, stop!" "Get out!" "Get out, you punks!" "You bums!" "Get out, before I call the police!" "Where are your parents to see you like this?" "Leta!" "You're here, too?" " Don't tell my mother." " Go!" "You should have thought about that earlier." "What great personalities!" "We heard you!" "You have the nerve to speak to me, you punk!" "Calm down!" "Keep that attitude for your son the nerd!" "What can I tell you?" "He brought you in here?" "What did you do, Petros?" "Everyone had to say only good things about you." "I never expected that to happen." "What a disgrace!" "Dad..." "What is it, Lena?" "Why aren't you sleeping?" "I don't feel like sleeping." "May I keep you company?" "Let me work." "This case is one of the hardest I ever had... and I must win." "You work all the time." "Why don't you stop for a while?" "Who'll pay for your school?" "For yours and Rea's dresses?" "Who'll pay for your mum's debts from gambling?" "It's your fault." "Why let her gamble?" "Give me a kiss and go to bed." " Why is Rea so late?" " She takes after her mother." "She likes the streets." "But you'll take after me." "You'll be good." " Good night." " Good night, dad." " Scold her when she comes." " I know what I must do." "Dear Kostas, it's one o' clock and my sister is not here yet." "When I think of her with you, I can't sleep." "This must end, because I am miserable." "You can't have others in your arms, I only truly love you." "Forever yours, your little woman Lena." "Good evening, dad." "Is mum here?" " What time is this?" " Is mum here?" "I'm asking you about the time." "You had a bad day at work and you want to get it out on me." "If you ever come home at this time, you'll find the door shut." " I told mum..." " I don't care." "Did you ask me?" "I'm the boss in here, not your mum." "Understood?" " What are you shouting about?" " Your daughter just came." " Why are you so late, dear?" " It was a party!" " All girls left at this hour." " I don't care what other girls do." "I want my girl to be home on time." " We heard you!" " Are you patronizing me?" " I have a few words for you, too." " Spare me the nagging." " I've lost enough money tonight." " You shouldn't have gambled." "I didn't loose your money!" "The money my father gave me... is more than you'll ever make!" " Stop it, mum." " It's my fault." "If it weren't for the kids, I'd show you!" " Please, daddy, stop." " She's asking for it." "Yes, I'm asking for it." "It's your fault." "You're to blame for all the fighting in here." " Sorry." "Let me give you a kiss." " I don't love you." "Please..." " I'm scared, I better not come." " What are you scared of?" "I don't what Dionysis to suspect anything." "He'll never imagine that I picked you up... after taking everyone home." "How do you like my piece of heaven?" "It's nice." "You have good taste." "When I walk in here I can't stand clothes on me." "I want to feel comfortable and free." "Take your clothes off, the heating is on." "One thing at a time." " What will we drink?" " I don't mind." "I'll make a dynamite cocktail for you." "Gin, whisky, vodka..." "I have no vodka." "That's alright, I'll make something else." " Does Rea come here often?" " I don't like such questions." "I'd really like you to be mine and only mine." "That can't happen." "I don't want to fight with Dionysis." " Isn't Rea a problem, too?" " Who cares about Rea..." "You're lying." "You might not love her, but you must care about her." "You're with her because she's a diva, so no one else can have her." "That's why you care." "You don't want to loose her." "You talk too much." "I don't like girls who talk too much." "We came here to have fun." " The door!" "Don't open it." " They see the lights on." " I have to get dressed." " I'll send them away." "It's you..." " Are you alone?" " What do you want?" "I fought with my father and left." "Can I sleep here?" " Not now." " Who's inside?" " Someone." " Can't you tell me her name?" "I'll tell you tomorrow." "Go and come back in two hours." " Is she any good?" " She's good." "You rascal!" "It was Dionysis, right?" " Did he leave?" " He left." " You think he suspects us?" " Don't worry..." "Come have something to drink." "Let these down!" "Here's to you." "Drink it like I do." "Bottoms up!" "You're not strong." " That was dynamite." " You're already dizzy?" "You know something?" "You're a good kisser." " Is that what you tell them all?" " Don't be smart with me." "Let me go!" "I'll bite you!" "Let me go!" " Will you bite me again?" " Never." " And then you left Leta's?" " I already told you that." "And you went to Petros'?" " Why did you say it like that?" " Because I like him." " He has a nice house?" " You're a fool." "Go to sleep." "You're driving me crazy with all these questions." " It's Petros I like." " Know what Kostas calls him?" " What?" " A nerd!" " How do you know that?" " You've told me." " So, you like him." " Very much." " And Kostas?" " I like him, too." " You have to choose." " I will." " When?" " Why are you in a hurry?" "It's not right!" "If Kostas knew that you love someone else, he..." " Don't you love him?" " Kostas?" "No..." "But I like him because he's a man." "The other one is a gentleman." " I like men." " You talk too much." "Go to sleep." "Good night." "My father will kill me." "What time is it?" "It's almost three." "He might be asleep." " The doorbell will wake him up." " Go, I don't want to stall you." "I'll go..." "Bye." "Sotiris, go to bed." "I'll wait up for her." "You can talk to her tomorrow." "I don't want anyone to hear us." "Get the door." "Tell her what you think and leave the rest for tomorrow." "Good evening." "What time is this?" "Why won't you say something?" " Where were you?" " At Mrs. Papadopoulou's." " You're lying!" " I was there!" " And at twelve when I was there?" " We went for a stroll." "And at one when Leta came home were you for a stroll again?" "Get out of the way!" "This is your fault!" "You were with those punks!" "I'll kill you!" "You'll behave or I will kill you!" "And if you dye your hair again, I'll pull them out!" "I won't let you become a slut!" "As I've lived poor but honest, you will too!" "I won't let you embarrass me!" "You deserved that!" "You should listen to me." "Because I was a bit late he must kill me?" "Shut up!" "Don't say a word!" "I'll dig your grave in here!" "You dare talk back to me!" "You're the mailman?" "Why don't you ring the bell?" "Come in." " Read the letter first." " I will." "Come in before someone sees us." "Sit." "You don't want to?" "Alright, don't sit." "You're jealous of Rea and you want me to break up with her." "Of course, she doesn't love you." " How do you know?" " She told me." "She doesn't love you." "She's just showing you off." "She's selfish and wants everything for herself." "I love you." "I have no other." "You're the only one who has kissed me." "Do you believe that?" "I do, but I have my plan too." "Wait." "Want something to drink?" "Lt'll make you feel better." "I'll have a drink on my own, then." "Why don't you take your uniform off?" "I said something, didn't you hear me?" "You can't deny me." "I'm your Kostas." "That's it." "Now you're a good girl." "Put your hand down." "Don't go any further, I don't want to." "Stop complaining then that I have other women in my arms." "Love is not just kissing." "This not a game." "Do you love me as much as I do?" "As much as you do?" "Is that love?" "I love you like a man loves, I want you all for myself." "I want that, too." "But I want you to have only me." "Now you're being a child and when you're being a child..." "Go and come back when you're older." "Way to go, Petros!" " Hello, Dionysis." " I came for you." " What's wrong?" " It's Maria." " She got a good spank." " From you?" " From her father." " It's not the first time." " Why though?" " How would I know?" " What time did we separate?" " I don't remember." "Around one." " What time did she get home?" " I don't know." "What do you want?" "She went home at three." "She was with Kostas." " How do you know?" " Leta told me." "She passed by her house and she told her." "She didn't say that she was with Kostas exactly... but she could tell." "I went by Kostas' that night... but he wouldn't let me in." " Hello, Dionysis." " Hello, Petros." " You were great today." " Yes, I was rested." " What will you do this afternoon?" " I was thinking of studying." "Want to come pick me up to go see a movie?" " The two of us?" " Why not?" " Alright." " I'll be waiting for you." "Are you getting out?" "I just got in." " You'll soak!" " Mind your business." "You had fans today!" "Did she break up with the other guy?" " I don't know." " She's after you though." "You're getting some." "If you want us to remain friends, cut it out!" "As if she's a virgin!" "I told him he'll get some with Rea and he's mad at me." " With who?" " Rea." "The one sitting on the tier?" "He doesn't know her then." "She hit on me, too." "Yes, dear." "I'm on my way." "Deal the cards and I'll be there." "I'll get a cab." "I'm leaving." "Come early tonight." "I can't stand his nagging." " See that the little one studies." " Don't worry, madam." " Won't you tell me anything?" " What?" "Right!" "I always have to remind you." "That's why I'm so unlucky." " Did mum leave?" " Yes." "You get out, too." " Why are you in such a hurry?" " I'm expecting guests." " Plenty?" " A few." " How many?" " One." " Who?" " Is this the third degree?" " Kostas!" " Petros." " Things are moving then." " Slowly." "Then, I'll get going." "Is that you, Kostas?" "This is Lena." "You again?" "Remember what I told you about Rea?" "Go to our house to see that I was right." "In a while." "I'll say no more." "You'll find her with Petros." "Of course I'll go." "We're going to have a party." "Don't say that I called, say that you were passing by." " What brings you here so..." " Suddenly?" "It was Bisbiras idea." "He told me..." ""No one will be at Rea's home now." "Let's pay her a visit."" "You are not being nice." "You leave us standing at the door." "Come in, gentlemen." "It's been sometime since we were last here." "Remember what went on in here when we first met?" "Now we cut everything." " Won't you offer us something?" " What would you like?" "Whiskey." " You Bisbiras?" " A vermouth." "Me, too." " Nice music." "Radio or record?" " Record." "I'll get it." "It's Petros!" "Come in." "I just want to see Rea for a couple of minutes." "Come in, Petros." "Hello, Petros." "Sit." "If your father allows you to hang out with us." " Cut it out!" " As if you don't know him." "He just has to be smart with you." "Did I ever try to be smart with you, miss?" "Yes, but it doesn't work on me." "I know..." " Other things work on you." " What other things?" "Cut it out, Kostas!" "Bring them." " How's the university going?" " So and so." "How about women?" "I forgot that you don't do such things." "Even if he wanted to, you haven't left any girls around." "There are also the ones that need more than one boyfriends." "Are you speaking of those you take to your love-nest?" "The ones that turn their home into a love-nest, like you." " I always knew you were scum." " Rea, please." " Stay out of this." " Yes, Petros." "Stay out of this." "The lady can take care of herself." "Of course I can and you know it well, so get out of here." "You have no place in my "love-nest"." "Spare me the attitude and leave!" "You can stay if you want." "Bye, Petros." "Sorry for spoiling your mood." "Now that I'll leave, I hope you'll get it back." "Have fun." "Fool!" " Why turn off the music?" " Feel like listening to it now?" "Now that he's gone, of course." "Come sit with me here." "Sorry for this, but he was taking it too far." "He things he can do anything." " Happy this happened today?" " No." "But you..." "You put me in a tough spot, I didn't know how to act." "I've told you that I love you and that I want you to be my girl... but if you are coming to me to get back at Kostas..." "I don't like it." "You are saying that because of what happened?" "I would have broken up with him anyway." "The other day you told me that you guys click." "We clicked, but not anymore." " Because you fought?" " That, too." "And because you got in the picture." "I'm in the picture some time now, did you just notice me?" "I don't like talking, do you love me or not?" "I don't want to see that gentleman again, I like you." "What will happen?" "I'm even confessing my love for you." "Do you want me or not?" "Don't laugh, it's not funny." "You know that I want you, but I haven't told you how?" " Are there terms in this?" " It's not about terms." "You know what people say about you..." "I you want to insult me like the other one did, stop." "I don't care what people say... and if you do, you shouldn't have come." "I am who I am, whether you like that or not." "I don't like you the way you are." " Then leave me alone." " I'm leaving." "Farewell." "Finally, you're here!" "The vermouth is for Leta... the other for Georgia and the brandy for the men." " Who are the cigarettes for?" " Me." "Maria, won't you have a drink?" "Have just a bit." "Cheers, guys." "Hello, Rea." "You came, dear." "Go get her." "We are sitting there." "Come one!" "Quit the nonsense!" "Guys, it's Rea." "Now we're all here." "Why sit here?" "There's a seat there." "I'll sit with Leta and Mimis, so we can talk." "You'll have to excuse me." "Good night." " Will you take me outside?" " Gladly." "Get up and dance." " Why are we stuck here?" " Get up!" "Let's dance!" "Thank you." " Are you holding a grudge?" " No." "Then let's drink to you." " Where is your escort?" " My escort is here." " May I sit by his side?" " Why not?" "Before though, when Bisbiras said..." "Let's not talk about that anymore, don't you agree?" "I'm so happy I'm with you again." "With our brandy, our music, our friends." "You?" " What about me?" " Are you happy?" " I'm not sad." " You're still angry." "You'll feel better when I give you a kiss." "That's the way!" "I like seeing nice things!" "No more nerds and nonsense!" "We have to celebrate!" "Let's get a couple of bottles of brandy... go in the outdoors and go crazy!" "I can't come, if I'm late again they'll kill me." "I can't come either." "Let's take the girls home and we go on with our partying." " Do you have a car?" " A legal one." "I rented it." "Bisbiras, pay for the drinks and buy a couple of bottles." "We'll wait for you upstairs." "Let them go..." "It's a beautiful night..." " Don't..." "I'll catch a cold." " I'll warm you up." " We stop here." " What's wrong?" "Kostas always takes revenge when insulted." "You knew that." " What are you talking about?" " You'll see." "What are you doing?" "Are you crazy?" "Kostas, please!" "Don't leave me!" "Kostas, stop!" "Kostas, don't leave!" "Why?" "What can I tell you?" "I'm sorry for what happened... but I think that you are also to blame for this." "How can you let your daughter out with no control." "My late father beat me up the only time I got home after him." "You pamper your kids and you do nothing to control them." "Not you, most of the parents." "You know what I see in here?" "Underage thieves, blackmailers, con men, hookers..." "All these kids come from a family." "What can the police do?" "When it gets involved, it's already late." "Only you can stop the harm from happening... unfortunately." " Do you have children?" " No." "But if I had..." "If you had children, you wouldn't talk like that." "How can you control your child?" "Quit work and chase after her?" "To forbid her to go out?" "When she comes late you can't hit her." "Educators say that beating can cause psychological trauma." "There's this new trend, psychoanalysis." "So you let them go free, pray... and hope that God will light their way." "What can I say?" "Maybe you are right." "I'm almost loosing my mind with this story." "Where is she?" "Can I see her?" "Wait." "They will bring her." " This is a good story." " If we get good pictures." "Please, gentlemen." "You're not allowed to." "You want us to get in trouble?" "We've been waiting here for hours!" "She won't tell anything to us, maybe she'll talk to you." "Who were the offenders?" "Who took her there?" "Who took her clothes?" "The police is bound to arrest them." "Whoever these gentlemen are, they must be punished." "What will I gain if they are punished?" "I beg you." "This case must close here." "We can't have this story in a court room." "I can't take anymore shame!" "Hello, Dionysis." " What brings you here?" " Haven't you heard?" " What?" " So you haven't heard." " You didn't read the papers?" " No, why?" " You haven't seen the picture?" " I didn't read the papers." " What with the picture?" " Read the comment." ""With her naked body roughly covered..."" ""...she's was taken to her father." So what?" "Read the headline." ""Daughter of a fine family was found wondering naked..."" ""...in the countryside."" ""Her company abandoned her." "Her name is kept a secret."" "Is it Maria?" "She's hiding her face, I can't tell who she is." " Who is it?" " Rea." " How?" "When?" " Last night." "Kostas, Bisbiras and Mimis got her drunk." "Then Kostas started kissing her... took her clothes and left... because she threw him out of her house... and humiliated him in front of you." " For revenge." " That punk!" "The police got her and called her father." " Lets go find him." " It's not our place." "Rea went to him." "She had it coming." "I feel sorry for her." "She hasn't spoken a word since last night." "She doesn't want to talk or see anyone." "Maybe it would do her good if you visited her." " She doesn't care about me." " She knows that you love her." "If you go see her and speak a few nice words to her..." "Don't you get it?" "Everything's dark for her." " Unless you want to punish her." " Why do that?" "She's a fool!" "She's not a bad girl, she just hangs out with the wrong people." "You're right, I'll go." "I have to go." "Open the door, Miss Rea." "It's me pleading you." "Don't upset your poor mother." "I'm bringing you toast, milk and marmalade." "Don't insist on harming yourself." "Cry now!" "I'm not insensitive, my child is suffering." "Then you should have stayed at home." "You should have stopped gambling... and done your part as a mother." "Did you do your part as a father?" "With your example, what could I do?" "What every father does." "Kids are only scared of the father." "You had no time for her." "You're concern is in your cases and when something happens... you blame me." "Did you ever go to their school?" "Forget Rea..." " What about Lena?" " She doesn't need me there." "I see her grades." "She is thorough and cautious." "She's taking after me." "The other one got all your flaws." "Thank God I have a girl like Lena... who doesn't embarrass me." "Today I couldn't look at anyone in the eyes." "I can't feel sorry for her." "You anguish all you life to make a name for yourself... and your own flesh and blood brings you shame." "Why be ashamed?" "No one knows about it." "Only you and me." "Luckily we covered things up." "But if you continue to shout, everyone will hear about it." "I know you well." "We're seeing in here things far worst than what happened... and you'll be to blame." "Instead of thinking like a mother... you seek for a chance to attack me." "How can I assert myself on the children... when they only hear you speak of your dowry and your father?" "If you don't take me in account, why should they?" "And now you see the results!" "If you have a inch of a brain left, let this be a lesson." "You'll see that it was a lesson for me... because from now on, only what I say will happen." "Understood?" "Hello?" "Is that you, Kiki?" "I won't come for cards tonight." "I'm not feeling well." "I'll come tomorrow, if I feel better." "Goodbye." "I'll get it." " Can I help you?" " I'm Petros." "I remember you." "You came for Rea." "Unfortunately she's not in." "Forgive me for insisting, but I'm one of her good friends." "I know." "I wish all of her friends were like you." " Let me see her." " Come in." "She's locked up in her room." "She won't open to anyone." " Maybe she'll open to me." " I hope so." "Rea, open the door." "A friend of yours came to see you." "It's Petros." "Open the door." "I just want to see you." "I'm your friend, open the door." "Please, Rea." "Open." "Fine, I'll leave." "But I'll be back." "I'll come by everyday to see how you are." " I'll be back tomorrow." " Thank you." "Miss Rea Nikolaou." "Poor, Rea." "I feel sorry for her." "Her dress is a mess in there." "It's not the end of the world, it just needs ironing." " If you ever did that to me..." " You'd spank me." "Let me take it to her." "I'll send it another way, I won't it to hurt her." "One final blow!" " He'll send it with Petros." " Or with someone else." " Who?" " I don't know." "Hello." " Did you hear?" "We broke up." " Finally!" "Last night she came in late." "She must have been with Petros." "It was the first time father spanked her." "She's locked up in her room, acting all angry." "She won't talk to any of us." "Now that I broke up with your sister, what will happen?" "Who?" "Is that you, Lena?" "Your mother is out and she will be right back." "So she's not there?" "Tell her that I'll be late today." "You'll be late?" "You're mother will be angry." "Where?" "The movies?" "With a friend?" "Fine, I'll tell her." "It was Lena." "She said she is going to be late." "Next time, knock before you enter." "Put that back in your pocket." "Calm down." "Give it to me." "Get out and don't say anything." ""Daughter of eminent lawyer kills her lover."" ""She killed her lover out of revenge."" "Leonidas..." "If you need any help, we're all here for you." "Thank you, only my daughter can help me... but she doesn't want to." "What will I need witnesses for if she won't speak?" "Her silence makes things only worst." "Doesn't she get it?" "That's what she wants." "She being self-destructive." "It's a wonder she didn't commit suicide." "I wouldn't want to be in Nikolaous' shoes." "It's the first time I feel sorry for a litigant." "He'll make the jury feel sorry for him and they'll be easy on her." "My son is gone, I don't care about anything else." "My name is Stamatakos, I'm from the "Evening News"." "Can you give me some information..." "Go ask the victim's father." " Are you divorced?" " Excuse us..." "This session is in meeting." "Bring in the accused." "Silence in court." "I call the witness Maria Siaka." "Daughter of Sotirios and Despina?" " Born?" " Here." "In Athens." " Age?" " 20." " Occupation?" " I don't work." "Put your hand on the Bible." "I swear to tell the truth... the whole truth and nothing but the truth." "Tell us, Siaka." "Do you know the accused?" "We were very good friends, although we were very different." "She was selfish and mean." " Your Honor?" " Yes, Mr. Attorney General." "You said you knew the accused well." "You also said that she was selfish and mean." "Very much." "Is that what led her to the crime?" "Yes, she wanted to take revenge." "The prosecutor." "Revenge because he left her stranded naked." "Was that insult enough to justify a murder?" "No, she let him take her clothes off willingly." "Thank you, miss." "Nothing else, Your Honor." "The defense." "I'll only ask you one thing." "If you were in her place... if someone took your clothes off, willingly or not... left you naked in the street for the police to arrest you... and your picture was in the papers the next day... wouldn't you commit murder?" "I would never be alone with a man... so he would take my clothes off, willingly or not." "Order." "Silence." "On the 30th of April, two days before the crime was committed... were you from 1 to 3 o' clock in the victim's home?" "The witnesses private life does not interest us." "She was the accused's rival." "It's only natural for her to accuse her." "Were you in the victim's home or not?" "I don't remember, we were drunk." "Maybe..." "Thank you." "Nothing else." "I call Haralambos Kizas." " Are you Haralambos Kizas?" " Of Apostolis and Kaliopi." " Born?" " In Corinth." "Occupation:" "An employee." "I swear to tell the truth... the whole truth and nothing but the truth." "What do you know about this case?" "What do you want me to tell you?" " Did you know the accused?" " Very well, Your Honor." " Why did she commit the crime?" " Kostas humiliated her." " Did she prepare the murder?" " How could I know?" " I told you everything I knew." " You can go." "I call Petros Kiriazopoulos." "Silence!" "Petros Kiriazopoulos, son of Filippos and Helen." " Where were you born?" " In Athens." " Age?" " Twenty-one." " Occupation?" " Student." "I swear to tell the truth..." "What do you know about the crime?" "I'm positive that something happened... more than her humiliation from Kostas." "What makes you say that?" "The afternoon of the crime..." "Kostas prepared a package with her dress to send it to her." "When a friend of ours wanted to take it to her... he said that he had thought of another way to send it." "Therefore, Kostas did something more to her." " More than all we already know?" " Only Rea can answer that." "You heard the witness, what do you have to say?" "Nikolaou, this court is expecting an answer." "Will you give it or not?" "Say something." "Help me." "Don't you feel sorry for me?" "Don't you feel sorry for your mother?" "The accused won't change her attitude." "Mr. Attorney?" "The prosecutor?" "You went to her home on the afternoon of the murder." "And she refused to see me." "The maid testified that since the accused returned home... she locked herself up in her room." "She didn't talk to anyone, not even to her parents." "She didn't make any phone-calls... and didn't contact anyone." "She didn't even talk to you." "She suddenly got out of her room... went to her father's office, took the revolver... and left her home at six." "She went to the police at 6:15... after committing the crime." "Only during that quarter could the victim... have caused any more harm to the accused." "But she was already carrying a gun." "If he were to give her one last blow... the bullets from the accused's gun stopped him." "Silence." " You knew the victim well." " Very well." " Was he a good person?" " Not at all." "He was a punk!" " No swearing in here!" " I'm not swearing." "He was accused twice for vagrancy... and once for car theft." "That doesn't interest this court." "We are very much interested in what the victim was like." "How else can we judge the actions of the accused?" "In contrast to the victim, what was the accused like?" "Rea... is kind of problematic, but she has a kind heart." "She never harmed anyone and if someone harmed her... she'd always find some excuse to forgive them." "Think of how much Kostas harmed her to kill him." "Is it true that you love the accused... and your were, in some way, the victim's rival?" "I did love her and I still have the same feelings." "Now, I don't only love her, but I also grief for her." "She was humiliated by a man who should have been in jail... so he wouldn't turn others in criminals, too." "Enough, witness." "You may go." "The attorney general will take the stand." "Members of the jury, this is a horrid murder trial." "On an afternoon of the past April... a murdering hand took the life of the victim." "The 22 year old young man, who died from Nikolaou's hand... was the one who once inspired love to her." "Love, when in the soul of a miring heart... transforms into a murderer." "I expected to see Nikolaou crushed and apologizing." "Instead, she is silent, refusing to answer to any questions." "She thinks that with this act the court will feel sorry for her." "If the court wants to be sorry for someone... it can turn it's head to the attendance." "Two misfortunate people, Kostas' parents... truly grief... and expect from us to feel how sacred this trial is..." "Mum..." "Will they kill, Rea?" "Her crime is horrid!" "She was well-organized and cold." "The reason was revenge." "She's vengeful... jealous and resentful." "She punished her lover... for a humiliation she could have easily avoided... if the shame she felt when seeing her picture in the paper... was present when he was taking her clothes off." "The defense will try to convince you... that this was not a murder in cold blood." "There is no such thing, there's only pure revenge." "Revenge made her commit that crime." "Members of the jury, you're the chosen to judge... and declare with your verdict... that in this corner of the world... human life is still respected and that honest people... are not left in the hands of horrid murderers." "Stop!" "It's not Rea's fault!" "Lena, sit down!" "It's my fault, not my sister's." "Don't believe her!" "She's lying to save me!" "I'm not lying!" "She found me in bed with Kostas, that's why she killed him!" " Take the accused inside!" " Let me go!" "Lena, stop!" "Don't believe her!" ""Unforeseen turn in Nikolaou's trial."" "Ladies and gentlemen members of the jury... from what the accused's younger sister revealed... there are alleviating evidence." "Nikolaou might be guilty for shooting that gun... but so is Kostas... as a person who kills others using deceitful actions." "I could end my allocution here, but I'd like to add a few things... that will help you reach a just verdict." "We heard the witnesses speak of love-nests and wild parties." "No one stopped to think about that." "That is the essence of the case we are examining here." "When these kids, who rely on their families... are out of control and go about doing unethical actions... then the responsibility falls upon everyone else, but them." "Kostas lived on his own, away from his father." "He'd meet him only to take money from him." "He heard out all the accusations against his mother... and then he'd go to her... and experience the same scene all over again." "There was chaos separating the two parents." "Their way of life was a bad example for him." "Now they grief... because they feel that they are to blame, too." "I feel that I'm to blame too, for the same reasons." "This is a judicial deception." "She is not the murderer." "Rea Nikolaou is innocent." "She didn't kill and she is not guilty." "Her father is guilty and should be the accused today." "I accuse Leonidas Nikolaou for the murder of young Kostas." "I accuse him because he put the gun in her hand." "I accuse Elisavet Nikolaou for not doing anything... to stop her daughter's fall." "I accuse her because instead of being close to her... she was out gambling." "I accuse Elisavet Nikolaou because when her daughter was going wild... she was gambling." "I accuse her, because when her daughter took the wrong path... she didn't realize it because she was gambling." "Put on the dock the ones who are truly guilty... and don't treat them with equity." "Leave Rea, she's not guilty." "Press charges on the parents, they are the murderers." "They killed Kostas." "Rea Nikolaou is innocent." "Silence!" "Stamatakos here." "The father just finished talking." "Want me to send it with the pictures?" "I don't know if we'll be on time for the verdict." "The jury will go in session." "It'll take time and it's one o' clock." "There is time." "It's 5:30." "I'm sending you the proceedings." "I'll call you about the verdict." "The judge will announce it." "Don't stall me!" "This court taking due note of... the conclusive evidence, the jury's verdict... and the fact that she was found guilty of murder... and according to law 299 paragraph 1-2... condemns the accused to 5 years imprisonment." "The accused reserves the right... to appear in the supreme court of appeal." "Congratulations, Mr. Nikolaou." "You were great!" "It's only five years, it will pass." "Are you satisfied with the verdict?" "I'll be leaving you." "Don't be sad." "It's only five years, it will pass." "I'll wait." "What else can I do?"
