About Short break
Yannis meets and falls in love with the leading actress of a play, Emma. She convinces him to propose one of his plays to the theater director. The director agrees to stage it, but in a more commercial version. Yannis feels guilty because he has allowed his play to be compromised and ruined. Soon, his relationship with the actress will be shaken by the weight of their character differences. He will eventually leave Emma, shortly before the play's premiere.
Directed by Dinos Katsouridis, Short break leans on a strong ensemble — Voula Zouboulaki, Alekos Alexandrakis, Alexis Damianos — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1966.
