Synopsis by Robert Firsching

Orestis Laskos directed and adapted this charming Greek comedy based on the play Our Good Angel by Nikos Tsiforos and Polyvios Vassiliadis. The film stars Kostas Hadjichristos as a shrewd young man from the rural provinces, now acting as something of a savior to his besieged employer (Dionyssis Papayiannopoulos). With a quickly eroding clientele and his family life in an uproar, the businessman is amazed to see his underrated employee win back clients and settle his household with his deceptively simple provincial manner and wisdom. Anna Fonsou co-stars with Alekos Tzanetakos and Periklis Christoforidis.
