For 7 years,

the Greek people have lived under the weight of a colossal debt.

A new government will bring hope for a way out of the prison of debt.

If we win this election,

after all these years of deprivation and oppression,

everything will change.

They beat the drum and we danced.

Now, we'll beat the drum and they'll dance.

If we win,

we'll never pay our debt. We'll force them to pay damages.

If they win,

we kick them out of the Euro.

Speech!

I'll make my speech after the final results!

Europe will see us for what we really are.

Later!

I'll make a speech

when the final results are out.

Later!

So?

What now?

We choose allies,

we form a coalition and we change the country.

What allies?

After the benediction at the Senate,

instead of taking his oath on the Bible, the new PM simply declared

he would respect the constitution.

Communists!

5 months and 12 days later

I resigned.

I've been arguing with Alexis for 4 hours.

6 months of arguing and he still doesn't get it.

He just doesn't understand.

Berlin wants to punish this country

and to make him submit.

It's a no-win situation.

Just Berlin or... all of Europe?

Everyone.

Alexis thinks Angela is his friend, that she'll support him.

In fact, she won't cede a thing.

She won't retreat an inch.

You did all you could to help.

He did nothing when his people attacked you.

You were right.

You should have resigned then.

He backed me...

for a long time.

We'd agreed on everything.

He had accepted my propositions.

For the Germans,

the French, the Italians...

They're not expecting us to negotiate everything.

In an open, constructive spirit.

But firmly!

The Germans want to kick us out of the Euro.

They can dream on!

We're in the Euro and we're staying.

He's not even a Party member!

Stay an outsider.

Infighting isn't for you.

Don't like my choice of ministers?

Shut up or leave!

They must understand our determination.

The party's program is not necessarily the government's.

Has the "sado-monetarist" arrived?

Not yet.

Why is the Troika leader here 2 days after our election?

3 days. And he is not the leader.

Will he announce a Grexit?

Or the Cyprus play?

If so, we're doomed.

There will be blood at the banks.

5 years of blood and shit never fazed them.

They're here.

"They"? How many?

This isn't Cyprus.

We can't reject their demands forever.

Yes, we can.

Both their demands and their bullshit.

Good morning.

Same speech for 5 years.

Cooperate with the European Commission,

the European Central Bank and the IMF... Yes!

But...

not with their bureaucrats who have applied

the same degrading methods for 5 years.

They're the Troika.

Even the European Parliament considers their proposals flimsy.

Any cooperation with them is off the table.

They're our strength.

They can turn against us tomorrow.

Only if we disappoint or betray them.

But one day, we will.

Not necessarily.

They'll ask for more and more.

Disappointment is inevitable.

FOR RENT

FOR SALE

FOR RENT

FOR SALE

FOR RENT

FOR RENT

See?

Everything's closed.

You must help them open again.

Here you are, Mr. Minister.

Keep it.

You paid me by kicking the Troika in the balls.

Listen to them, but no promises. They're dynamite.

My suitcase!

I'm aware of your problem. Prepare a decree to rehire them.

I'll sign it when I get back.

In 4 days.

We'll be here waiting.

Rehiring 300 cleaning women

sends the wrong signal to Europe and the Troika.

They better get used to it.

The taxi drove off.

With my minister outfit?

Great!

Go find him. Hurry!

This sums up our tragedy: we're in debt to German banks

for buying German limousines.

Prepare a decree: all limousines will be replaced

by cars suitable to the leftists we claim to be.

That's more media spectacle than economics.

It's a media society.

The Troika will appreciate our savings.

Is it warm?

Yes it is. A bit large.

The French don't care how people dress.

But the English...

Elevator straight to the Minister's office.

Yanis!

Welcome!

Ambassador.

Minister.

Minister.

Welcome to Paris.

My team.

Good morning, welcome.

Make yourselves comfortable.

Yanis! I'm so happy to see you!

Thank you for this warm welcome, Minister.

Dear Michel...

The success of your program will be ours too.

We must replace Europe's neoliberal "austerity frenzy"

with a viable program that you need,

as does the rest of Europe.

The press awaits us.

We've waited too long to rebuild Europe.

Now we need growth.

Berlin is upset you came to Paris first.

You must go to Berlin as soon as possible.

Good morning.

Thank you all for coming.

The picture.

Thank you.

Let me welcome a friend and representative

of a sacrificed country

that has been suffering for years.

But Greece made promises to its creditors

and the government must honor them.

Greece must respect previous agreements with the utmost discipline.

But above all, they must sign the MoU,

the Memorandum of Understanding.

That will be all, thank you.

The group photo.

This way, please.

Thank you, gentlemen.

Get used to it.

Come meet our Minister of the Economy, Industry and Digital Economy.

And more surprises up his sleeve.

London

Both the average Englishman and the ruling class

consider Europe an obstacle to progress.

For them,

France clings to Europe to avert its own decline.

What's their opinion of us?

Very low.

Laced with contempt.

But Minister Osborne respects you, sir.

Finance Minister

Mr. Minister, the Adam Smith Institute loved what you had to say.

How great!

Left-wing economists won over Thatcher's favorite think-tank.

Our "comrades" will make us pay.

Yes?

What is this ridiculous coat?

My daughter already complained.

I recorded this for you.

Now the Krauts will respect you.

Frankfurt

Mr. Minister...

Mr. Ambassador...

Mario's announcement of the ECB's loss of confidence in our banks

made the Athens Stock Exchange fall 10%.

You've lost what you achieved in London.

I have met with my Greek colleague.

And despite our very cordial discussions,

we can only agree on the fact

that we agree about nothing.

Either Greece toes the line

or steps out of the line altogether.

Now I'll leave you with the Minister.

What about Greece's anti-German fanaticism?

Do you plan to negotiate or eradicate it?

That was Berlin or just Wolfgang?

Both.

Wolfgang is organizing our exit from the Euro.

They're waiting.

Step 1: have the European Bank

cut off the cashflow to Greece

so our banks close.

What do we do?

Prepare for the Eurogroup meeting. It will all play out there.

And prepare to replace the Euro,

if ever they force us out.

Any progress?

As you requested, I have a team

to work on a "plan B".

That mustn't get out.

It won't.

Talk only about Berlin.

Of course.

Welcome!

Fuck Brussels.

The Russians will give us billions.

They're broke. And they are not a solution.

Tell us about your European tour.

The stock exchange traveled too.

It went up, up, up

then down, down, down.

Who cares about the stock exchange?

To sum it up:

they all want us to apply the MoU.

The what?

The Memorandum of Understanding signed by the right.

I didn't know it was called M-O-U!

We won't submit to it!

We ran against it.

Wolfgang swears only by the MoU.

Doesn't he know we won the election?

Our people are fed up with Berlin's diktats.

Many agree with Wolfgang.

The French? The English?

The French... are weak.

Hollande helps a little...

We can't expect much from the English.

The European Bank?

The European Bank will cut off our cashflow

if we refuse the MoU.

Your trip was a disaster.

The papers say

you called Wolfgang a Nazi.

Lies! Sit down.

These attacks are aimed at all of us.

Anyway...

Your proposal?

Fuck Brussels. And fuck the debt.

And then?

Then they'll negotiate.

The first Eurogroup meeting is in 12 days.

We have two options.

Number 1: we sign the MoU and we're good guys.

Number 2:

we remain intransigent and we get kicked out of the Euro.

In short,

to reach an agreement with the Eurogroup,

it's imperative that we present

a united front.

Their threats mustn't affect us.

We go there to negotiate.

We'll go all the way if we must.

Strong-arming them can backfire.

Acting weak is worse.

We can't fight butt-naked.

Listen.

If we go there ready to roll over,

it'll be a disaster.

We wanted to start by firing 2,000 doctors.

Then 2,000 more. And finally, another 2,000.

Then they decided to go on strike.

So we fired them all in one go!

8,000 doctors fired.

How many hospitals had to merge?

Nobody knows.

The figures weren't released.

We need the doctors back.

Many went abroad.

How many?

Over 3,000.

The PM wants us to consider rehiring them

and re-opening the hospitals.

What do you sell?

Everything.

Anything belonging to the State.

Highways, land, beaches,

buildings, ports, railroads.

And airports of course.

And lots more of our country's wealth.

It's not a sell-off, it's a liquidation.

You work only with foreigners.

Eavesdropping?

Not at all.

Your Eléni worked for the right.

The PM knows.

Minister!

No pasarán. Hasta la victoria siempre!

They're waiting.

But they did pass.

What?

Nothing.

Brussels European Commission

The tie!

Come.

A bridge must be built

between the Troika and you to renegotiate the MoU.

This people, whose sacrifice is unbearable,

sends us message of democracy

with its new government.

It calls for flexibility with the MoU, it's good.

It's a trap.

It says "good relations",

meaning our budget stays under Troika's control.

No mention of restructuring or ending austerity.

What do you think?

Accept "adjusted" alone.

- Yes. - They'll close our banks.

So we'll buy time.

"Adjusted MoU"alone is surrender.

Any alternatives?

They'll shut the banks. Let's give in.

It's risky, but they won't crush us at our first meeting.

We must buy time. We'll talk later.

We bought ourselves some time.

I'm too old for these games.

Brussels

What's your take on the meeting?

Under Wolfgang's thumb.

Now...

they'll try either to overthrow you

or to create chaos and blame it on one of us.

Most of them are against us.

"Empty speeches,

"arrogance, Mediterranean narcissism..."

I'm their target.

The French president smells danger.

I offered him an official visit.

You should talk to Merkel.

Only she can rein in Wolfgang.

Jeroen, president of Eurogroup.

Jeroen is only a minister. Alexis shouldn't meet him.

He's also president of Eurogroup.

Is Jeroen a puppet or the puppeteer?

We must give them something to reach an agreement.

If you let them choose who they talk to, we've lost.

This way.

They're furious. This won't be fun.

Go see Pierre.

My editorial in Le Monde had a big impact.

Juncker offers a project to unblock the situation.

I'll keep you updated.

Yet another insulting article.

Nothing about what we're proposing.

I had Angela on the phone. She talked to Jeroen.

Go to the meeting. Stay calm and firm.

Find common ground.

Make or break.

Many people are rooting against you.

They just want to humiliate us.

Stay true to our three-page plan.

Five-page.

Wolfgang and Angela are at war. Jeroen's the fall guy.

Or us.

The German left

We have a new agenda and our banks stay open.

In the spirit of "constructive ambiguity".

Athens Airport

Brussels says we disrespect its institutions.

The Troika!

They have a floor at the Hilton.

No more invading our ministries like in the past 5 years.

It's written into the intermediate agreement.

Christine fears for their safety.

100 police officers ensure their security 24/7.

Your agreement of "relative ambiguity"...

"Constructive ambiguity".

Half of our representatives won't vote for it.

Half of ours plus the opposition and it'll pass.

Not if we don't rehire the fired

nor restore salaries and pensions and stop privatizations.

It's an intermediate agreement. It's a first step

towards what we all want.

Start by refusing the debt.

There's nothing political refusing it...

From the president of the Eurogroup.

Wolfgang is back in command.

The parliament will not vote for anything MoU-related.

Go to Parliament and explain it.

I could sign the agreement

and bypass our Parliament.

Ten years in jail.

Can I sign it?

You can't.

Only the minister signs for Eurogroup.

I'll deal with it.

The President of the Council of State.

Sir, what is your verdict?

Mr. Prime Minister...

Letters from the Minister to creditors

asking to make a deal...

must be endorsed by Parliament.

Your judicial council told me

it concerns the extension of an agreement.

But a letter like this, as you know,

will create a precedent.

We'll need a decree...

giving the Minister the right...

to sign.

So prepare the decree.

Wolfgang took control again. You must call Angela.

They're like kids waiting for Santa Claus.

He took a taxi at the airport.

He wants to be incognito.

Why all this mystery?

Angela doesn't want his presence here known.

I really don't know.

The PM didn't give a hint.

He said to listen to him before speaking.

Angela is sending someone we can trust.

- Is there any tarama? - Of course.

Must be someone she trusts.

Our guest will find solutions.

Calm down.

It's very official, very early.

It's about to start.

They're about to shut our banks,

yet she greets him like a king.

What's behind this?

He mustn't fall under Angela's spell.

Alexis isn't easy game.

It's a seduction strategy, with a study of the guest's character.

Nice coat.

She wants to rebrand her country's image.

I don't think so.

Angela has one strategy: divide and conquer.

The meeting between the PM and the Chancellor

lasted six hours.

Six hours!

Let's see the outcome.

We seemed to understand each other.

We have major differences

but her desire for change was clear,

especially after reading your 27 pages for which she congratulated me.

Are you sure she's sincere?

She gives the minimum to take the max.

Sincere, I can't say. Pragmatic, yes.

You'll never guess what she told me.

"Replace Yanis

"and negotiations will go much better."

I told her, "I agree.

"If you replace Wolfgang."

She never brought it up again.

What else did you decide, besides to keep us?

To create another level of discussion.

Freer than the Eurogroup, which is paralyzed.

A brilliant trick to divide us.

You and I will introduce our ideas.

Meanwhile the Eurogroup is meeting in Riga.

Your orders?

Stand firm on our decisions.

And on your 27 pages.

The Riga meeting is informal.

Come in.

We were there. Both of us.

This one is smaller than mine.

They put me here for the view.

They separated us.

What is going on?

We're together, go ahead.

I talked to Angela.

Stand your ground. Don't give an inch.

Thank you, Victor.

The effort to eliminate me has begun.

If my replacement can help...

We are like a hand-knit sweater.

They pull on one loose thread.

Taking you down will take me down.

We're together.

You did a good job in Riga. The proof.

Eurogroup's yes-man

demands that you be replaced.

Fuck him!

It's your fault. You let him address you directly.

I'll tell him you're his sole contact.

- You wrote Jeroen? - I have news.

He called me twice.

Sit.

I received two calls from the Eurogroup president.

He'll speak only to Yorgos.

We won't let them decide,

but we can't keep saying no.

According to Angela,

things are at a stand-off between Yanis and Wolfgang.

And the stand-off

has blocked negotiations.

I'll sacrifice Nicholas

and replace him with Yorgos.

Yorgos is excellent.

He's liked in Brussels, and will reach an agreement.

A surrender agreement.

Nicholas is an intellectual,

a perfect collaborator...

but he's not the man for such complex talks.

You're giving in to the Troika!

No! I'm buying time

so we can reach the agreement we want.

Some want a Parliament vote on the MoU.

- That won't happen. - It will.

What a mess.

Eurogroup, the home front, the press,

public opinion: all against us!

We need a break.

And you'll oversee everything closely.

As a stooge?

As a man I can count on.

Sit down.

140,000 people voted for you.

142,000.

Whatever you say. 142,000.

Why are you laughing?

Resigning is a betrayal of their trust.

No, I'd betray their trust if I stayed.

I can't hear!

Betrayal is staying

and not fulfilling my promises.

You always need to have the last word!

Here? Is this your surprise?

You got it. Don't like dinner with friends?

Love it.

The wine, thank God.

Thank you.

Who wants red?

- Me. - Me too.

- Who's going first? - Shall I?

I want someone to explain

the point of this charming...

but conspiratorial meeting.

You received 150,000 votes...

142,000.

More than any other candidate

and you want to abandon them with a nice letter.

And chatter on TV.

It is a conspiracy!

After all your promises for change.

A well-organized conspiracy.

If you leave, they'll blame you for everything.

They already do.

Guys...

Half of the cabinet,

I'm not exaggerating, wants to sign the MoU.

Even though they were elected

to end austerity, rebuild wages,

reduce unemployment, raise salaries,

nationalize the banks,

tax the wealth of the Church...

Need anything?

What do you want?

Speak!

What did you decide?

I have to ask her first.

She doesn't like politics.

- Sorry. - No, come in.

Come, sit down.

Come here.

Planning a new austerity program?

Sakis and Yorgos think it will secure us a better agreement.

It's a capitulation.

They think we'll get significant debt relief.

The more concessions you make,

the more they will demand.

We were elected to relieve the country of crippling austerity.

Know what it means when they ask

that a 3.5% surplus be paid back over 10 years?

It means constant crisis.

Besides a few oil countries,

no others can bear a 3.5 surplus over the course of 10 years.

Angela wants to see me.

I need you. I must make important decisions.

I'm going to Brussels. Come ASAP.

Our secret service think you work for Wolfgang

to exit the Euro.

So does Manos.

What about you?

I don't.

See you in Brussels.

Welcome to Brussels, Mr. Minister.

- What is this? - A Greek fest.

He can't be disturbed.

I need to see him!

Yorgos is meeting the Troika.

With Wims!

Lay off him.

This is why you came?

Excuse me.

Yorgos is of no importance anymore.

I'll call for a referendum. Only you know.

A Grexit is out of the question.

Don't change your plans. We'll talk later.

Brussels German delegation

I feel hooked like a swordfish.

They reel me in, let me go.

They reel me in...

let me go.

This referendum is our freedom.

Agreed. But a referendum is not enough.

We need to be prepared for what's coming.

People want you fired.

And the right blames you for destroying our economy.

I did it all with your agreement.

We'll share the witness box.

I am their target. The end of the left.

Wims says you won't last long.

He's wrong.

I want you by my side.

I decided to call for a referendum.

I must inform the cabinet and the Parliament.

You two stay here for the Eurogroup.

I require secrecy until I officially announce it.

I need all of you.

A referendum. To win or to lose it?

If we win, do we quit the EU?

The referendum concerns accepting Eurogroup's ultimatum.

They'll close our banks.

Merkel promised me they won't.

NO

YES

NO

YES

Yes?

I'm coming.

Coming.

Coming.

The banks shut.

Great promotion for the Yes.

We'll sign the MoU...

Please open our banks!

Let's sign it.

They'll leave us in peace!

If the banks open then shut due to cash shortage,

there will be riots.

Anti-Troika demonstrations. We'll be there.

Us in the streets?

The government does not demonstrate.

Your idea

of a withdrawal limit, 60 euros a day. Can we apply it?

Yes.

- How long can we hold on? - Until the referendum.

Good.

Let's put in place the 60-euro system.

Tell me.

How's the plan B coming along?

Ready to go.

And?

Transitioning to a new currency is hard. Painful too.

We'll lose a lot but they won't kick us out of the Euro.

Look at what we have here.

We just found 16 billion.

3 years ago, the ECB airlifted 16 billion for our ATMs.

They dispatched it to different banks and forgot.

Great find, but useless.

Why useless?

It can keep our banks open.

That's theft. It belongs to the ECB.

Theft...

If my child is starving, I can steal some milk.

A leftist government stealing!

Corrupt, like our predecessors.

We can nationalize it.

Alleviate our people's pain.

If we quit the Euro, of course we can nationalize this money.

We won't quit the euro or become thieves.

Go for the 60 euros a day.

With the announcement of the referendum, the ECB

cut cash-flow to Greek banks that closed,

resulting in economic asphyxiation.

I will ask the Greek people to vote Yes,

because...

their vote will send...

a signal both for Greece

and the Eurozone.

Assholes!

In the end, they'll make them vote No.

They're right, the Yes will save the country

from the bankruptcy and misery

the left drove it into.

If Yes wins, I quit.

Yes means: accept the MoU.

We'll continue the struggle.

We've achieved so much!

Yes may offer a solution.

And some might accept it.

It will put us back in the Troika's hands.

The opposite of our goal.

And if No wins?

They will kick us out of the Euro!

With the country behind us, they won't dare.

If they do,

we start a new currency and we fight.

Night of the Referendum

In less than an hour,

an earthquake of huge magnitude will hit Europe.

And we'll get trapped

in a prison of debt with no bounds.

Serving the brutal Troika...

Unless we have a No.

A massive No.

Whichever side wins, I will still need you.

Manos thinks...

I'm preventing any agreement with the Troika.

If it's No, they must accept our agreement.

They'll try to make you capitulate, at any cost.

All of them.

A political vision needs time.

Quitting is death of the visionary

and the vision.

Surely.

The victory of the Yes is a conclusion and a solution.

If we quit, the left disappears.

If the left stays, it will implement right-wing politics.

It would be better if it disappears.

To be reborn later.

Now the results.

10,

9,

8,

7,

6,

5,

4,

3,

2,

1...

The people are always right. Even when they're wrong.

I'm caught like a swordfish.

The Germans will destroy us.

He's a megalomaniac. Only cares about his career.

Austerity will be eradicated

by the growth austerity will bring.

Do not resign. You mustn't.

If we resign, we'll be both crushed.

If we win, do we quit the Euro?

Currency transition is hard.

No voters don't want to leave the Euro!

It's Angela.
