"The acclaimed director Pantelis Voulgaris in collaboration with Martin Scorsese (Executive Producer) offers his spectacular new film, accompanied by a wonderful and nostalgic score composed by Stamatis Spanoudakis. Nifes (Brides) the 11th film directed by Greek Director Pantelis Voulgaris and produced by Martin Scorsese.
Nifes (Brides) is the story about Niki (Charalambidou) a dressmaker from Samothraki and the American photographer Norman (Lewis) in the summer of 1922 in Smyrni.
Niki is one of the 700 ‘mail-order’ brides who are being chosen off a photo and come from every edge of Greece, Turkey, Russia, Armenia and all of them carry the picture of an unknown groom who’s waiting for them and their wedding-dress in their suitcases. Some of them emigrate through agencies, others through orphanages or church constitutions. Niki is travelling to find and marry Prodromos, a tailor she never met in the place of the sister who couldn’t stand living in foreign lands and returned home anyhow. In this ship, the "SS-KING ALEXANDER", Norman travels as well where a concealed love between the two develops under-way.
A romance against the ‘do’s and don’t do’s’ of the era. A much afflicted and turbulent era.
