Like a Prairie Cock in Wyoming
Michalis wakes up in Leda’s bed. It is his first time alone in a woman’s apartment, but his bliss is cut short by his eventful acquaintance with Lia. Strange and distant, seemingly weak, she lures Michalis into investing all his desires in her, at a time when life around him seems full of contradictions that keep getting more acute. With a mother who is pregnant at 42, who insists οn bringing into the world alone one more child whose father is unknown… With a boss who is both his friend and father, and who has been hard hit by love at 55… Among women who a11 hide something from him stirring υρ emotions that could easily be confused with love… Three months in the life of 20 year-old Michalis, small and giant steps towards his coming-of-age.
