In 1896 it is announced that the Olympic Games will be revived in Athens. A young shepherd, Spiridon Loues, decides to enter the 26-mile marathon. Once in Athens, he meets Christina Gratsos, a young woman from his hometown who is now the personal maid of Eleni Costa, Greece's most glamorous actress. Though he has arrived after the qualification date, Spiridon's athletic prowess so impresses Coach Graham of the American team that he is permitted to enter the contest. Eleni informs the press that she will marry the victor, confident it will be her lover, Lieutenant Vinardos.

Opposite as black and white, the successful lawyers and business partners, tardy Stamatis and hasty Grigoris, fall for their supposedly single new secretary, unaware that she's already married. What happens when the charade is over?

Thanasis Kourtis came from the countryside to Athens to find his friend, the well-known impresario Giorgos Oikonomidis. Oikonomidis cannot find him a job, but suggests that he open an agency to seek out new talent. Thanasis follows his advice, and one of his first clients is Kostas, the son of industrialist Lyridis, who wants to become an actor. Eleni, who wants to help him and win him over, becomes Thanasis' secretary.
