A Costas Ferris' short featuring two of the best greek songs. Back in 1961 this film was expelled from Thessaloniki Film Festival because of the lyrics of these songs. They belonged to the rembetiko genre that used to over-emphasize the pleasure of using drugs. The worst thing was that Acropolis was shown in a plan and that lead the government to completely ban the film as anti-touristic!
