Description: Four women were sterilized and are kept drugged to serve in a state-controlled brothel.
They work as prostitutes and dominatrix’s, but they still dream of having a child.
The relation between them are about to rupture as the food and water are about to run out and the brothel is crumbling down.
The outside is totally destroyed and they have no alternative but to stay in their posts.
Their routine is made out of nightmarish encounters, simulated miscarriages and permanent rapes.
But the real troubles only begins when one of their clients disappears.
“This is the last film in the gloomy life of Greek genius . Sometimes it seems that Nikolaidis takes the ancient Greek comedy , and sometimes he himself lives in order that relieves .

Eternally lame dynamics in this picture honed to near perfection , the Greek dialect on the verge of recitative sensual and penetration , and the alternation of images drawn into the atmosphere of film noir . The film is a comedy to some extent , but the laughter quickly turns to tears .
Four women work in all forgotten brothel in the heart of a police dystopian future. Beating customers in leather masks to a pulp , performance in the erotic theater and selling emotions , forced injections of drugs, abortions , suicide , paranoia, hallucinations, despair and become irrational reality – all the traditional routine of life in their own little hell and cozy , which is slowly transformed into paradise , because behind closed doors in the house where the roof leaks constantly no one else and nothing is left, and the worst thing that ended in cigarettes.
Maybe the film does not show a futuristic dystopia , and allegorical now …”
