Mythopathy

Greek coming of age comedy drama set in a picturesque yet politically turbulent ‘70s and ‘80s Athens. From Tassos Boulmetis (A Touch of Spice).

When the south wind blows, Stavros (Yiannis Niarros, One Breath) invents stories that fly in the face of classical Greek myths, bending and twisting legends to fit his mixed-up view of the world. Upsetting his straight-laced parents and baffling specialist after specialist, a local fortune-teller diagnoses him with ‘mythopathy’ – a rare condition that allows him to reshape reality whenever he suffers a broken heart.
