Joyfully Chaotic, 'Why Don't You Play in Hell?' is a Must-See
If you enjoy Japanese cinema, absurdly violent action films, gangster flicks, or joyfully strange cinema, 'Why Don’t You Play in Hell?' is a must-see.
Triti
A compulsive gambler and his girlfriend on her birthday, illegal immigrants, salsa dancers, lovers in their love nest, amateur thieves, a girl in a wheel chair, a doctor, and a radio host are just some of the many, many characters that form this mosaic of young life in Greece. From the early hours of the day to the evening on a Tuesday (not) like any other, their stories reel off in episodes with not much connection apart from Athens´ urban scene and a certain idea of an unsuccessful search: everyone seems to want something, or someone, and they can´t get it.
