Those Not Allowed to Love (1951)

Bent on making a name for himself in the demanding world of classical music, Pavlos, a young starving musician and brilliant student of the renowned Athens Conservatoire, finds himself before a pressing dilemma. After years of training and hard work, Pavlos must now put aside his pride and finally put his talent to good use, as the new guitarist of a humble night club, if he wants to marry his long-term sweetheart, Keti. But, there, a chance encounter with Lisa--a dazzling coquette and clandestine lover of the affluent businessman, Yorgos Beliris--will pave the way for betrayal and heartbreak. Now, Pavlos has an even more challenging decision to make. Will he renounce his solemn vows of eternal love and devotion for the sake of success?
