...Deserter (1988)

A fresco of life in a small country spa, as it unfolds before the eyes of Christos, a young man from Athens. Christos is led there, dazzled by a youth, Manolis, in whose person all the contradictions of his social milieu come to life. At first an insubordinate wildcat who has deserted from the army three times, Manolis will re-enter his social world, becoming assimilated into it little by little and bringing to light all the characteristics of his alienation. Money is the basic reason for Manolis's alienation as well as that of the other inhabitants of the spa, which lives and prospers thanks to the local tourist trade.
