Open in HeraeAbout the film
Never on Sunday (Greek: Ποτέ την Κυριακή, Poté tin Kyriakí) is a 1960 Greek romantic comedy film starring, written by, and directed by Jules Dassin. The film tells the story of Ilya, a contented Greek prostitute (Melina Mercouri), and Homer (Dassin), an earnest American classicist. Homer attempts to steer her toward morality, while Ilya attempts to make Homer more relaxed. The original screenplay examines the impact of intellectual imperialism upon indigenous joie de vivre. It constitutes a variation of the Pygmalion plus "hooker with a heart of gold" story. The film's bouzouki theme became a hit, and the film won the Academy Award for Best Original Song (Manos Hadjidakis for "Never on Sunday").

How to watch it together from different places
Each of you opens Never on Sunday on your own account. Herae keeps the two players in sync, so a pause or a skip happens for both of you, and puts a video call in the corner of the film so you can see each other react.
