Dekapentavgoustos is a unique film that starts very nice, grows very strong and has a quite badly written ending.
Two married couples, a rich and a poorer, along with a family of four live in a block of flats in the center of Athens. And as the custom requires in Greece, everyone goes on vacation on 15/8, due to the Assumption of Mary. The rich goes to a villa at Pelion, the poorer go to a small bay at Peloponnesus and the disfunctional family go to Veria, to Panagia Sumela, for Holy Mother to make a miracle and heal their dying daughter.
The main part is the problems they encounter at their roadtrips, while a burglar breaks into their block of flats. And as long as it lasts, it is very good! But I just cannot forgive this deus-ex-based stupid ending, especially the ending of the burglar...
ps.This is another Greek movie with many problems in the sound, where either everything is very loud or almost mute.
