Ο άσος στο μανίκι

Somewhere at the start of Syngrou Avenue a roulette wheel turns without pause. Pavlos, in the thankless role of croupier, watches the half-wrecked lives of the players and is drawn to Natalia, a Romanian economic migrant who works at the same club. Between them stand Marios, the endless night and the tyranny of gambling, as a rigged game with no clear rules begins in the stifling illegal club. The bitter story of a man on the fringes of the underworld and of a society in decline.
