Chased by IMF: the incredible story of a Greek migrant

The story is incredible. In fact, it is “tragicomic,” as the protagonist described it. Lambros Moustakis, 52 years old, homeless and jobless in Athens. Born in Brazil by Greek parents. He was a worker in Argentina, when the International Monetary Fund moved to ‘rescue’ the country. HE moved back to Brazil and had a job until the IMF moved to ‘rescue ‘ Brazil. And from Brazil to Greece… Hardly settled in Greece, he might had thought that nobody can escape his fate: to be chased by the IMF!
