Λάδι σε καμβά

Summer 1966. Spyros, a student at the School of Fine Arts, spends his holidays as the guest of a painter's family on the island. It is a defining summer, for him and for the family that hosts him. Shortly afterwards, April 1967 changes everything in his life. His story is that of many others of his generation, the story of a young painter who refused to betray his friends but betrayed his dream, in the mid-1960s, when the world, like them, was twenty years old and new songs played in the boîtes of Plaka.
