Papadopoulos and Sons is an independent British film, written and directed by Marcus Markou. Released in 2012, it was hugely succesful despite having a small budget. It is a great example of how a small budget can be used effectively to distribute a film.
Set in London, this film tells the story of Marcus Papadopoulos, a vastly rich businessman who makes a bad investment, loses everything, and is forced to re-open an old fish and chip shop with his family his brother. Reluctant at first to come to terms with what has happened, he eventually realises that money is not important and begins to apprectiate things like family.
Reviews were the film were fairly average. Generally, it was described as a feel-good film with charm and character. It received a 6.2 out of 10 on IMBD and 3 out of 5 stars from The Guardian.
