    3. TRAILER FOR THE FILM "GOLDEN-HAIRED" The trailer's opening scene displays the film title and the director's name against a black background: "GOLDEN-HAIRED, a TONIS LYKOURESIS' film". In a school classroom, the local authorities (the chairman of the local council, a policeman, the priest etc.) and some villagers attend a speech about contemporary hygiene standards: porcelain toilet bowls. The teacher (Antonis Katsaris) stands trial: the local authorities have been railing against the teacher, who "stands trial" at Konte's house. At the back of a big lorry, the theatre company are happily on their way to the villages in the area where they will be giving performances of "Golden-haired". The police captain has a roadblock set up and refuses them permission to present any more performances. The priest (Nikos Alevras), accompanied by some of the most conservative villagers, excommunicates Anastasios, the heretic teacher: "Such a blasphemous and disgraceful teacher must be severely punished". In a schoolroom the performance is rehearsed. The teacher plays the role of Golden-haired. During his denunciation in Kontes’s house, the teacher defends himself. Sempros (Vaggelis Kazan) out of control names the teacher and Eleni “antichrists”. Eleni (Vera Krouska) talks back. Kontes reacts while Sempros leaves. The teacher and Eleni remain alone and silent while the narrator’s voice over announces the names of the protagonists and the film title, as well as that the film is shot on Zakynthos with the participation of the habitants. He refers to the film as the apocalypse of this year’s Thessaloniki Film Festival. Titles appear that refer to the awarding of the film in the Thessaloniki Film Festival of 1978.
