Ieroklis Michailidis "ZITITE PSEFTIS (LIAR WANTED)"
Theofilos Ferekis is the new minister of Health and Welfare who has to deal with all the "favours" he promised during the pre-election period. As soon as he realizes that he will not easily pull off, he decides to hire a... professional liar.
Theodoros Parlas or Pseftothodoros (Liar Theo) who has a great "talent" for making false promises starts a great career as Ferekis' right hand man.
One lie leads to another and they soon need a lot more lies to handle hilarious situations. 50 years later, the play of Dimitris Psathas remains a classic.
