Mikra Aglia is a rare work of art . Pictures like paintings on a wall, music perfectly matched , excellency in acting and directing all in one film. Feelings of love and despair will reach your heart if you watch this film. The director slowly drags you to be part of the beautiful environment of the Greek island of Andros . In some dramatic scenes I felt like I was in the room witnessing the drama . A unique masterpiece. A film not to be missed from all those who seek quality cinema in a time when thousands of trash movies full of violence are produced ,mainly from the US, and consumed by societies increasing the real violence in them. I watched the film yesterday night and I will watch it again today . I watched more than one hundred films in the last six months and I felt the need to write a review only twice , for this film and for the "Best offer" of Giussepe Tornatore .

Thank you director ( Pantelis Voulgaris ) for the gift of watching this film .

It's surprising that this film only has eight reviews. It is not a perfect film, but it's definitely worth much more attention.

It shows the life of the Greek seamen's wives with very beautiful landscapes, costumes and scenes. These aspects showed to be well taken care of. I just wonder what happened to make up, it looked amateur at times. The performances were good in general, some were outstanding.

Even though love triangles featuring siblings have been done before (obviously) what the story tells doesn't feel wore out at all and has a lot to offer. It is an outstanding story (it must be a good book). Beautiful and heartbreaking this movie happened to awake a petty feeling in me: the jealousy some characters felt. I'm definitely grateful to a movie that touches me that way. The only thing I feel sorry about is teenagers watching crappy movies like fifty shades of gray while touching and culturally rich movies like this one are criminally ignored.

pd: excuse my English

Dramatic, angry, cold ocean scene with the waves crashing. We're told right at the beginning that it's 1930. Greek chick "Orsa" loves local dude Spyros, because he's NOT a captain, and therefore he won't be lost at sea as so many others have been. Unfortunately, her mother has other plans. She marries a "Captain", and it's pretty much all sad and mournful from there on out. And to make matters worse, her younger sister "Moscha" ends up marrying Spyros, the guy she wanted to marry. A Jane Austen drama. Anyhoo. BEAUTIFUL outdoor scenery of Greece. Of course, with World War II looming, the men folk all head off to war, and we know that one of the husbands will soon be knocked off.... but which one ? and which secrets will come out? The secrets DO come out and there is bad blood between the sisters. Kind of goes on and on. Bland and bleak. Needed some humor or something to zing it up. Although it DID win a bunch of awards at the various film festivals. Written by Ioanna Karystiani. Directed by Pantelis Voulgaris, who had been working in films since the 1960s. Everything is very well done, its just a very long, serious story. Two hours.
