Let the Women Wait! (1998)

Let the Women Wait! is a 1977 Greek comedy-drama directed by Giannis Dalianidis. The film centers on a group of men whose plans and relationships become entangled in a lively series of misunderstandings, with the story drawing much of its energy from romantic rivalry, social expectations, and the contrast between traditional attitudes and changing ideas about relationships.

Blending comedy with elements of romance and social satire, the film reflects the popular Greek cinema of the late 1970s. Its ensemble approach and character-driven humor give it a distinctly theatrical quality, while the situations surrounding the protagonists provide a playful look at gender roles and courtship in Greek society.
