The story
An Albanian man hijacks a bus in a bid to make himself heard, as authorities pursue it toward Albania.
Full plot (contains spoilers)
An Albanian man who is a permanent resident of Greece and lives on the margins decides one day to storm a bus with a gun and hijack it. As he says, the reason for the hijacking is to finally be heard. The Greek authorities then begin pursuing the commandeered bus as it heads toward Albania, while journalists also become involved in the affair. Meanwhile, during the hostage situation, the passengers’ hidden lives unfold, revealing that the hijacker is not the only one living an oppressed life: on the bus are an illicit couple, a lesbian woman, a drug user, and an African immigrant who lives in Kypseli.
