Having pinned his hopes on his wealthy industrialist uncle, ambitious Yorgos moves to bustling Athens to make a fresh start. Instead, the idealistic young man from Thessaloniki soon finds himself lost in the busy but dream-crushing metropolis. And as Yorgos tries to make a quick buck, unemployment, temptation, and a ruthless drug-trafficking ring get in the way of his fervent aspirations.
