synopsis
On New Year’s Eve of the year 2000, the paths of eight persons cross in unexpected ways. A businessman, who weavers between his wife and his mistress, faces an extortion of extremes. An unemployed man becomes a hired killer to escape from his misery. A child wanders the streets alone, trying to survive.

director’s comment

A fresco of a city, a fresco of a planet as a new era is supposed to arrive. The personal stories of eight Athenians combined with tele-news playing in every house, create a story that comes over the personal. Is the dawn of the millennium the beginning of a new era, or is it that behind all the glittering celebrations, people are experiencing a different reality?
