An epic tale of degradation, The Greek Tragedy follows 30-year-old American Julian Jakos into the underbelly of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. What begins as a wide-eyed cultural observation quickly turns to the seedier side of Southeast Asia as Julian becomes immersed in the expat bar scene of Pham Ngu Lao. Making friends with a feral lot of international drunks Julian is bound by misadventures amid a terse Vietnamese culture and a sex life as cruel as it is pleasurable.

Let the madness begin.
