5,000 Lies (1966)

Already three months behind in the rent, the perpetually unemployed best friends and roommates, Kostas and Vasilis, comb the busy Athenian streets in search of a job. After many disappointments, a chance encounter with the eccentric archaeologist and avid collector of antiquities, Aristides, will lead to a life full of suspense, as the mysterious man enlists their help to steal a rare clay statuette from the mansion of Patroklos, his biggest competitor. As one thing leads to another, Kostas and Vasilis begin to fall in love with Patroklos' beautiful daughters, Efi and Dora, of course, without disclosing their true identity. But, will the girls stay with them after 5,000 lies?
