Where to Watch Urge for Life (1986) in the US

What it's about

Sharing the same passion in life, two young aspiring actors, Kostas and George, struggle to make ends meet in Athens--and, in contrast to their big dreams--they somehow manage to make a living. Always owing money, the talented but suicidal George will see his life take a turn for the worse after the end of his relationship with the fellow actress, Katerina; a pivotal point in George's life that marks the beginning of a personal nightmare, and a plunge in self-pity. As a result, George is now determined to find a way to end a miserable life without her; however, he plays it safe when attempting suicide, simply because he knows that Kostas will always be there for him. Until now, all those unsuccessful attempts kept George alive--but, after a spine-chilling call from a stranger who promises to execute his death wish professionally--this solitary wandering soul is bound to re-evaluate his plans. Will George ever find peace?
