A HERON FOR GERMANY

Loukas runs a small publishing house of poetry books. He’s broke and struggling to get by. His assistant, Marios, a dreamer, urges Loukas to publish the poems of a friend of his, but meanwhile Loukas has discovered another young and promising poet, Ghoghos, in whom he believes. Loukas’ printer demands to be paid in cash and suggests that Loukas publish another, more commercial book, that will surely sell. However, Loukas has a low opinion of this specific literary genre, regardless of its commercial potential.
