George goes to Athens on the eve of his granddaughter's trial and does everything in his power to help her, in order to atone for everything he had done to her in the past.

A janitor of the Municipality of Athens, determined to give his six-year-old son the future he himself was denied, enrolls him in a private school. But his chase of the “Greek dream” turns into a tragicomic spiral of conflicts, leading to a bitter revelation: perhaps his illusions were all he truly had.

While his father is working abroad, Nestoras spends his days trying to learn how to ride a bicycle without training wheels. As he struggles with falls, fear, and persistence, his quiet determination hints at a deeper, unspoken longing.

The series is based on real events. It takes us to Kythera from 1906 to 1909 and chronicles one of the largest mass murders the country has ever known. There, we meet the central figure of the story, Antonis, a peaceful shoemaker. A lovable young man, until he is unjustly slandered. The outcry of the local community forces him to leave. He makes a new start in Piraeus. Again, however, his attempt to escape falls on deaf ears. History repeats itself in the big city, filling Antonis with bitterness and anger. Now, there is only one way left for him: Revenge.
