The Cicada and the Ant
1958, Greek. Directed by Filippos Fylaktos.
Two friends and co-owners of a flower shop, Eudaimon and Loulis, live by completely opposite principles. One enjoys himself and lives carefree, while the other works hard and plans for the future. When the "grasshopper" ogles his kind housewife, eyeing her olive trees, the "ant" tries to bring him to his senses. But the girl, whom the ant plans to introduce to the cicada, will ultimately enchant him.
