National Priests

About This Movie

So, 'National Priests' is one of those quirky comedies that feels like a time capsule of the 80s. You've got these priests, Papa-Malachias, Papa-Haros, and Papa-Bilias, who form a band and get tangled up in the nightlife of Athens, performing at this club called 'Xerokomata.' The contrast between their sacred lives and the wild atmosphere is pretty amusing. The pacing has this loose, almost improvisational feel, capturing the chaotic energy of the era. The abbot is a great character too, struggling to understand this new world he's thrown into. It's not all polished, but that’s part of its charm. The music, though, is a stand-out—very catchy and adds to the overall vibe. Definitely an oddball piece worth checking out.
