Storyline

Plot Summary

Passionate and utterly incorrigible, Aleka Oikonomidou, a compulsive gambler, lives only for the thrill of the game. Neck-deep in debt, Aleka neglects her two grown-up children, Nina and Lakis, and her husband, Andreas--who is at the end of his tether--just to play cards; however, desperate times call for desperate measures. They say, a leopard never changes its spots; nevertheless, can Andreas' daring plan bring Aleka back on track again? Written by Nick Riganas

Goofs There is a major spelling mistake on the front cover of the official DVD. Instead of "I Chartopaichtra", it says "I Chatropaichtra". IMDb's Photoshopped primary image has the correct spelling; however, a quick search can easily show the mistake. See more »
