Trapped in the decaying city of Aldevaran, a doomed wordsmith and poet is searching for hope and purpose with his only friends: a call girl and a rocker. Is he destined to perish along with Aldevaran, the inhospitable, dream-crushing city?

Aldevaran is an imaginary city where the word-maven and poet Dimitris, the prostitute Magdalene and the rock musician Chris live together. Every evening, the two men give improvised performances in a coffee bar, until the day that Dimitris is informed by his doctors that he has cancer and only two months to live. The film is about those two months, with Dimitris wandering in an ugly city which is also dying with him.—Greek Film Archive

Trapped in the bleak, decaying city of Aldevaran, doomed wordsmith and poet Dimitris meanders through the grey streets of the urban maze, searching for hope. Holed up in a squalid apartment with young call girl Magdalene, Dimitris whiles away the time writing poetry and reciting his dramatic verses in a smoke-filled coffee shop where his only friend, the uncompromising rocker Chris, performs. Then, as if struggling to find purpose in a hostile city wasn't enough, suddenly, Dimitris realises he is living on borrowed time. Is Dimitris destined to perish along with Aldevaran, the inhospitable, dream-crushing city?—Nick Riganas
