A team of eight actors, including Romanian actress Cristina Catalina, and a bouzouki player take up the gauntlet.

Directed by: Peter Sturm. Cast: Cristina Barreiro, Cristina Catalina, Evie Craddock, Benedict Hopper, John Ioannou, Roland John Liopoldie, David Keller & Glen Fox as Alexander. Musician: George Tooulis.
