Captain Mihos Floros returns to Samarina to gather more men and lead them to the besieged by the Ottomans, Missolonghi, in order to assist the fight of the resistance at General Makris' bastion. With his personal friend Elias Manakas and 25 more men by his side, begins the long journey to get to Missolonghi and join Zisis Hatzimatis and the rest of their fellow countrymen. On March 1826, they start a journey full of adversities through the mountains. Back at the village of Samarina, the women try to find out from Heleni Floros the real reason their husbands had to leave in a hurry. Meanwhile, Ibrahim Pasha and the Turkish commandant of Arta, N. Servan, get ready to launch the final assault on Missolonghi.

In turbulent, mid-1820s Greece--as war and the Revolution against the oppressive Ottoman Empire rages on--a handful of brave and selfless patriots, led by Captain Michos Floros, embark on a suicide mission to reach the gates of the besieged town of Missolonghi. Determined to sacrifice their own lives for the noble cause for liberty, the men have only nine challenging days to cross the untamed Greek countryside and the rugged enemy-ridden ridges of the vast mountainous region, to aid the fortified town's weary soldiers and the civilian population.
