One of the best Greek movies ever made although completely unknown to the public. Watching TV late on o slow summer night i stumbled across this movie and decided to see it cause there was absolutely nothing else to see. What would i have missed... The movie is about a small time crook traveling through Greece with a (stolen) car when he sees security car crashing on a tree. Inside there is valuable necklace called "the Belly of the Bee" (i koilia tis melissas). He decides to keep it and then his trouble begin. He also crashes his car and ends up in an abandoned camp site with a lonely teacher and a disoriented security guard. Apparently the necklace is somehow cursed and they all get delusional not fully understanding where they are or do. The plot is very simple but the beauty of the movie is on its humor. Its surreal original and innovative, especially for a Greek movie. i totally recommend it for someone who likes movies like the Monty pythons or similar.
