Vera Vasdeki

Thirty-five years must pass before Alekos (Michael Nikolopoulos) and Lia (Inda Christinaki) can unite their lives. During this time, unpleasant things will happen and plots will be hatched to keep them apart.

In 1827, at an inn in Nafplio, the capital of the newly established Greek state, a group of people from different parts of Greece are celebrating the defeat of the Turkish fleet in Navarino. However, in their patriotic fervor they drink too much, and a hot-tempered Arvanite, not understanding the dialect of a Cretan and thinking he has insulted him, injures him with a pistol. Police Inspector Dionysios Fantes from the Ionian Islands arrives at the scene to interrogate the witnesses but he too can't understand their various dialects as they can't understand his.
