"The Flight of the Swan"-N. Tzimas
The last film appearance Thanasis Vengos

An international production, based on a true story, filled with sociopolitical concerns and environmental sensitivities, by Nickos Tzimas ("Astrapogiannos," "The Man with the Carnation"). "The Flight of the Swan" also features an impressive cast of Greek and foreign actors.

A few names from the cast are James D 'Arcy, Alicia Witt, Colm Meaney, Linda Gray, Larry Hagman, Tom Frederic, Georgina Rylance, Yiannis Vouros, Ieroklis Michaelidis, Thanasis Vengos, Angelos Antonopoulos, Petros Fyssoun, Vassilis Mavromatis, Alexandros Logothetis etc . The “Flight of the swan” is like the flying of our souls towards beauty in life and love, the appreciation of the magic of nature, and the love of what we lost in the maelstrom of modern life, the tension and anxiety we experience in our pursuit of career and economic success.

The plot tells the story of Alex, a "goldenboy", who served profiteering defying its negative effects. A terrible ecological disaster with many casualties, caused by the greed of a certain multinational consortium, including Alex’s company, awakens him from the great illusion. The collision with the the giant is inevitable. Yet, he wants to regain everything he has lost… get back his life!
