Set on the island of Corfu at the beginning of the century. Story of the troubled love affair between Rene and Andreas and the refusal of Rene's mother to give Andreas the dowry he demands.

The wife of an alcoholic and mother of four (Toula Stathopoulou) is a factory worker in Corfu at the beginning of the 20th century. A fallen noble man who has fallen on hard times (Stratis Tsopanellis) wants to marry her eldest daughter (Anny Loulou) and take advantage of the family's meager earnings. He kidnaps the not-unwilling girl, and argues with her mother about the dowry. But the girl refuses to marry him when she wakes up to the fact that he is only looking out for his own interests. She then decides to start working in order to earn money to raise the child she is expecting. The film is an adaptation of the novel 'For Honor and Money' by Konstantinos Theotokis.—Anonymous

Early 1920s Corfu, Greece. Working her fingers to the bone to provide for her family, Episteme, the wife to a violent alcoholic and mother of four, finds herself between the hammer and the anvil. As her beautiful older daughter Rini falls for Andreas, an impoverished patrician living in genteel poverty, Episteme must brace herself up for his impossible, preposterous demand: to marry Rini, Andreas wants to get his hands on her meagre dowry. Now the indelible mark of greed taints innocent love, and Rini has to face the consequences of her decision. But there should be no fear in love. Against the backdrop of prejudice, stark social contrasts, and the lack of options for women, can Rini claim her self-esteem and redefine her identity?—Nick Riganas

Early 20th century, in a small port neighborhood of Corfu, Greece. Epistimi raises her children alone against a harsh historical and political background. Her husband spends the poor income of the family on alcohol. Rini, Epistimi's daughter, and Andreas, a decadent aristocrat occupied with smuggling, fall in love. Andreas and Rini cannot get married, because of Rini's low social status and lack of money. Andreas asks for a large dowry in order to marry her -he has to pay off a mortgage on his family's house. Epistimi offers him half of the money he asks for, since she must also think of her other children. To blackmail her, Andreas, persuades Rini to run off with him without marrying, but Epistimi once again does not give him the sum he asks for. Rini gets pregnant and her mother has no other choice than submitting to the blackmail. In triumph Andreas announces to Rini that they are going to get married, but Rini refuses and breaks their relationship. Despite the outcry against unmarried mothers, Rini finds a job in a factory. She manages to preserve her dignity and to remain firm on her belief that Love should have no Price.—Alkistis Zografou
