Three Eggholders, Almost Four

Haralabos is at his late forties and he has just lost his dog. He decides to fill his empty space and time with a collection: on a whim, he chooses to collect egg holders. Until one day he meets Dimitra, an avid collector and also a loner. Their relationship will share the joy of discovery and the grounds of sharing. But everything will change after a trip in the country, where the couple will face an unknown temptation: the egg holder that could be the most beautiful piece in their collection. If they don’t own it, how can they go on?

Directed by Konstantinos Samaras, Three Eggholders, Almost Four leans on a strong ensemble — Nikos Karathanos, Alexia Kaltsiki, Haris Fragoulis — 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 2014.
