A summer night in 1944 in Kokkinia, Kosmas, a black marketeer, is out with his friends before he is arrested by the German patrol. The Germans push him to turn in people from the Resistance, or they will execute him. The next day, Kosmas wears a black hood and points at the combatants who have been forced to gather at the main square of the village. The film of the hyperrealist filmmaker and writer Adonis Kyrou, recreates the terrifying conditions of the blockade of Kokkinia, when, in the last period of the German occupation, the populous neighbourhoods of Athens resisted at any cost.
Beliefs surrounding illness and healing in Byzantium stem from the myths, astrology, and magic practiced around the Mediterranean by Jews, Egyptians, Mesopotamians, and Greeks.
