Viva Rena

Nov 13 1967 N/A 1h 22m
Comedy, Musical

Rena, a decadent folk singer from Corfu, lives in Athens with her bouzouki musician brother Stratos, while her cousin Pepita di Corfu, is a major prima donna of popular tunes and lives in Rome with her fiancé Antonio. The shipowner Lampros Fokas, who had met Pepita years ago in Naples, invites her to a reception. She is unable to go, but a foxy agent presents Rena in her place. At first, the ruse is successful, and Fokas is charmed by Pepita-Rena. The things are getting complicated, however, when Pepita comes to Greece on vacation.

Plot

In contrast to her successful cousin who lives in Rome--the popular performer, Pepita di Corfu--the little-known Corfiote singer, Rena Papaliou, has settled for a lacklustre life away from the show business along with her brother, Stratos. The only thing the two cousins have in common is a striking physical resemblance--a vital attribute that will soon come in handy when an unforeseen complication refrains Pepita from attending the glamorous reception of the affluent ship owner, Labros Fokas. Now, Rena becomes Pepita to keep the show going; however, won't anyone unmask the well-meaning impostor?
