Parta ola

A wealthy, eccentric old man leaves his friend, a notary, a strange will. He wants to be buried with a view of the sea, gypsies playing music, and his coffin carried by four girls dressed like Moulin Rouge dancers. Otherwise, his enormous fortune will be inherited by the church for the benefit of illegitimate and extramarital children. His son, a former progressive and now a businessman, is unable to revoke the will because the church will be the plaintiff. So all the members of the family will try overnight to find a way to fulfill the terms of the will in order to get the money. But the road will not be as easy as they imagined...

Directed by Vasilis Boudouris, Parta ola leans on a strong ensemble — Melina Argyriou, Alberto Eskenazy, Spiros Focás — 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 2003.
