By night, Stratos works in a bread factory but by day, he’s a professional hit man. He needs the cash to free Leonidas from prison because the latter once saved his life when he was behind bars. For Stratos, this is simply a question of honour. We’ve no idea how many people he’s already killed, but we do notice that he still has a conscience. He attentively looks after a neighbour’s child, eight-year-old Katerina, as well as her mother and an uncle. At last he has enough money for the prison break-out, but an unexpected turn of events takes place, one of them having to do with Katerina’s psychological and physical safety. Stratos must act, even if this means following one wrongdoing with another. In his fourth feature film Yannis Economides makes use of the character of the detached contract killer in order to explore a sad and desolate world. The forlornness of his protagonist reflects the desperation of a society which has given up on itself and its values and has allowed the mask of civilisation to fall away.

From ballads of the late 80s to heartbreaking compositions of the 90s and the new frontiers of pop, R&B is the defining force behind emotional and rooted music that always hits the mark. SATIN LOOKS traces the evolution of the genre to the present day, using vintage synth strings and keys, fundamental chord progressions, funk-tinged guitars, and crunchy percussion that combines old-school flavor with a modern aesthetic. Whether it's the bittersweet sounds or the nocturnal nostalgia that defines R&B for you, this is exactly the pack where you can find it.
