Alexis Kardaras

A Greek shopkeeper discovers something about his family's past when his mother embraces an Albanian worker.

Threatened by his debtors, rocked by a broken heart and driven by greed, a charming gambler arrives at a middle-of-nowhere tavern in search of a case of gold. Instead, he attracts the attentions of the grumpy tavern owner's unhappy wife, whose affection complicates his plan and perpetuates his spell of misfortune.

Set in the world of Greece's urban-folk music scene of the 90s, the film depicts the fatal relationship between a young singer and an elder songwriter and her mentor.
