Fleas in the ears

In Belle Époque Paris, Gabrielle, after years of family happiness, begins to doubt the loyalty of her husband, Victor-Emmanuel, and confides her concerns to her old friend Lucien. The comedy begins to unfold when Gabrielle and Lucien, in order to test Victor, write him a letter, arranging an appointment at a dubious hotel. What they do not know is that the usually drunk Posse, Victor's double, works as a doorman at the same hotel. When all the heroes of the play arrive at the hotel, each for their own reasons, the fuse of the farce is ignited...

Directed by Yannis Kakleas, Fleas in the ears leans on a strong ensemble — Vicky Stavropoulou, Hristos Hatzipanagiotis, Sofia Moutidou — 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 comedy titles of 2015.
