Night Wanderings
A documentary of the nightlife in Athens. It shows the night clubs, the musical revues, the striptease shows and also some dramatized sketches with famous actors. Where would the modern Athenian go to have a great time with his friends in the cosmopolitan, bustling-with-people, 1964 Athens? In this vivid kaleidoscope of urban pleasures, tradition coexists with change; pop culture becomes inextricably intertwined with folklore, and the old makes way for the new. As a result, the noisy, old-fashioned taverns around the famous Omonoia Square and the fashionable nightclubs, crammed with stylish Mods and rebellious Rockers, are two sides of the same coin; after all, there is always room for something new in Athens. Now, against the backdrop of this vibrant cultural mosaic, stories of love and devotion; deceit and despair, and also, lust and betrayal, pepper this lively cinematic reportage that allows the viewer to take a peek at the saucy, secret nightlife of Athens. Are you ready for an exciting night-wandering in the heart of the big city? —Nick Riganas
