Kostas Darlasis

A crime that took place somewhere in the Greek province is covered by the media. Everyone is looking for answers, but the small village community knows that the victim was a father-master who had an affair with his daughter.

The world of adults through the eyes of a child: Intrigues, joyous breaks, illusory and conflicting interests, misunderstood pursuit of love, gestures of affection, dull faces, all make up the background of 7 years - the pinnacle of kitsch - captured on an old-fashioned movie poster at the edge of a dirt road in Thriasio Pedio.

An adaptation of one of the greatest greek novellas ('The Murderess' by Alexandros Papadiamantis). Fragkogiannou (Maria Alkaiou), a hard-done by, deranged woman after a life full of hardship, recalls the past by her newborn girl grandchild’s crib. Her mother was a wicked woman and one of her sons was a criminal. Lost in a haze, she strangles the baby as she is concvinced that girls can cause their family only trouble. Later, she lets a little girl drown in a well, while she drowns three other little girls, one of whom is a newborn baby. This is her way of sparing children and parents of the inevitable suffering in life.
