Synopsis by Clarke Fountain
Nineteenth-century Greek engravings are used in this unusual documentary film in order to show the mood and tenor of those times. Of particular concern to the filmmaker is to demonstrate how the upper classes enforced their will on the country, including the lower classes, and how Greek industrial development took place.
