A young musician with serious psychological problems meets a young actress. She will change his life and lead him to collide with his family.
Holed up in the ancestral mansion, Stefanos, a brilliant twenty-five-year-old pianist, lives and breathes music. Yearning to see her son become a successful piano soloist, Zoe, Stefanos' overbearing mother and failed pianist, is gradually pushing him over the brink, forcing him to create a pathological split personality. As a result, reclusive Stefanos finds solace in his sensual world of fantasy, thirsting for what his authoritarian mother deprives him of, including love. When Christina, a bright-eyed, up-and-coming actress, appears in their villa to shoot some scenes for her latest film, inevitably, she upsets them. Now, for fear that the lively and healthy girl steals Stefanos away from her, Zoe decides to go to great lengths to suppress their budding relationship. Will Stefanos ever escape from the clutches of his mother and his violent psychosexual disorder?—Nick Riganas
