Delivery (2004)

Against the backdrop of multicultural Athens, Greece, a bustling city preparing for the upcoming 2004 Summer Olympics, a taciturn young man devoid of hope arrives in the faceless metropolis. But it's a jungle out there. Like a fish out of water, the inexperienced visitor meanders through the city's dark underbelly, looking for a miracle in all the wrong places. Then, as the destitute loner manages to land a job as an underpaid delivery boy at a seedy pizzeria, little by little, the ugly face of reality unfolds, and the remorseless inevitability that, for those living on the margins of society dreaming is a taboo, becomes a cruel certainty. Now, the trapped stranger is self-exiled in his own country, a pariah amid outcasts. And, sometimes, not even love can pierce through the palpable darkness of the now. Does God hear the prayers of the damned?
