Uranya

In a small Greek village, five teenagers are eager to discover love—and the whole world – and the summer of 1969 marks a turning point in their lives. Uranya is a very beautiful woman who lives just outside the village in a house by the sea. The kids swear a joint oath: to save enough money so they can visit Uranya and be initiated in the mysteries of love. When faced with a great dilemma of whether to buy their first black-and-white television set so they can watch the landing on the moon or remain true to their oath and pay Uranya a visit, the boys fall out, and Achilles finds himself alone. Will they finally break the oath they took for Uranya’s sake or will the prospect of watching the moon landing be too tempting?
