Theodoros comes to Greece from abroad. They welcome him friends and relatives, wanting his fortune.

Addicted to lying and making money fast, Thodoros, a professional swindler who hasn't worked a single day in his life, arrives in Athens, Greece, after fleeing Congo. As the news of his sudden arrival spreads like wildfire among his ambitious and impecunious relatives, once more, cunning Thodoros devises a fool-proof scheme to get rich without breaking a sweat, planning to get his hands on their meagre savings. And before long, wealthy Thodoros' kin flocks into his apartment, dreaming of a better future. However, is sly Thodoros prepared to part with his precious cash?—Nick Riganas
