- Synopsis
- Dionisis is a stand-up comedian who
  unconditionally loves his job and puts the greatest
  effort into it, but the continuously increasing changes
  on today's society bring him face to face with
  performing struggles. This is a situation he refuses to
  admit, but definitely affects the way his comedic
  monologues work towards the audience. When this
  problem becomes obvious enough to be ignored, he'll
  be forced to deal with it. His girlfriend Xanthi,
  becomes an unexpected teammate to this effort.
  However, she also carries her own demons,
  originating from her childhood and family
  environment. She has chosen a different path though,
  attempting to forget and avoiding to provoke the
  "monsters" of her past, while feeling guilty for her
  role in their creation.
  A comedy rehearsal night at home brings these two
  different approaches to conflict. Dionisi's monologues
  provoke Xanthi's guilt and her interventions reveal
  the fear he's choosing to ignore. Trapped inside the
  same space, they are quickly led to recognize their
  fear, but fail to use their long developed defences.
  And when the defences fall, the feelings they share
  will help them defeat the fear, just by deconstructing
  it.
