Ευδοκία Ζεϊμπέκικο ( Evdokia Dance scene extended)
Set in early 70s Greece, in a small provincial town, the film tells the story of Evdokia, a young prostitute, and George, a young soldier, who fall in love and get married, against the bias, conservatism and established values in the society where they live. However, it s difficult not to get crushed by reality. In this iconic scene, we can witness the first meeting between Evdokia and George during a powerful Zeimpekiko dance. Director: Alexis Damianos Date of release: 1971 Music: Manos Loizos imdb page: PS: the woman s voice might seem a bit out of synch; it s because she s dubbed. The director wanted amateurs for the duo of lead actors, but the female lead s delivery was not deemed appropriate for the film, so they used a Greek singer to dub her.
