About Wounded youth
A girl from the countryside, Marina (Katerina Gogou), comes to Athens to work in the shop of a family friend (Theodoros Katsadramis) of her father. She rents an apartment with a naive girl (Jenny Rousea), who will be married by a lazy womanizer (Lefteris Vournas). The latter, after throwing out her husband, will leave their baby with Marina and disappear. After six years, she will return and ask for her daughter back. However, Marina, who has raised the little girl as her own child, refuses to grant her request. They arrive at the courts, where despite the support of her suitor and lawyer (Christos Negas), she will be forced to part with little Rinoula.
Directed by Pavlos Tasios, Wounded youth leans on a strong ensemble — Jenny Roussea, Christos Negas, Lefteris Vournas — 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 1969.
