Unplug the Minister in the Socket (2001)

NR | Aug 05, 2001 (GR) | Comedy, TV Movie | 01:40

At a critical political juncture in England, the minister and deputy prime minister, Alex Charles, is injured, in a coma, on a life support machine in his home. His bourgeois wife, her lover, his friend and also a government minister, the minister's colonel mistress, and even his political opponent, have interests in keeping him alive. The entanglement and grandiose plans for power are the best stimulant in a story of incredible misunderstandings and reversals. The minister's daughter, the Indian butler, and even the air conditioning technician, are involved in the threads of a tragicomic situation that borders on parody. The entire government of the state rests on a power socket...The play was staged at the then new venue "PIRAEUS 131" in 1998 and was played for 3 seasons "Unplug the Minister (1998)". The television show is from the 3rd season. It was re-aired on Star on Sunday, August 5, 2001 & Saturday, March 22, 2003
