A darkly comic portrait of middle-aged desire and delusion set against the hedonistic beauty of a Greek island, where a doctor's infatuation with a young tourist becomes a study in self-deception and the gap between fantasy and reality.

Kostis is a 40-year-old doctor that finds himself in the small island of Antiparos, in order to take over the local clinic. His whole life and routine will turn upside down when he meets an international group of young and beautiful tourists and he falls in love with Anna, a 19-year-old goddess.
