The Young Tycoon

Paul Dellis, a young self-made shipowner, has no time for anything other than high class call girls in a luxurious resort. The girl suppliers are a photographer and owner of a model agency, Werner, and his girlfriend Samantha. A rich woman, Tina, who spends her time at the same resort, fascinated by Paul arranges to visit him taking the place of Samantha. When Samantha is found dead, Tina disappears and all suspicions fall on Paul.

Directed by Omiros Efstratiadis, The Young Tycoon leans on a strong ensemble — Yiorgos Gintis, Sylvia Lueff, Haris Tryfonas — 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 crime titles of 1978.
