I earini synaxis ton agrofylakon, Greece 1999
After the sudden death of a local field warden on the island of Chios in 1960, four different men take up this job one after the other, and fail. The first is too timid for the job, the second too reckless, the third too soft, and the fourth, finally, falls in love with a thief. «A subtle, politically subdued humour carries the three-hour long, though never boring, film not only through four ages of life (of the policemen), but also through four magnificent seasons, for which Vivaldi’s music proves itself as the ideal engine.» (NZZ)
