Who can forget the sore look of the gypsy. The mismatched love of a young architect with great ambitions and a beautiful gypsy just under twenty. A love that from birth carries, almost insurmountable obstacles, as it comes in complete contrast both with the "properly" environment of Antonis and with the marginal, but tightly closed to its own rules, world of Erato.

Movie - 1993, 2h 15m • Main Cast Role
Four episodes, four instances from a man’s life covering 25 years, from 1965 in Germany to 1990 in Athens. The episodes seem to be irrelevant to one another, yet they all focus on male powerplay, reveal the self-consciousness and moderation of the protagonist’s idiosyncrasy and depict some special aspects of the Greek male mentality. Probably Nikos Panayotopoulos’ most personal film, covering a substantial period of his generation’s years, “I’m dreaming of my friends” is based on the book by Dimitris Nollas, looks a lot like a “road movie” and features an all-male cast, as if there’s no room for women in it.
