Dimis, the author who writes successful crime novels inspired by true facts is depressed as he was left by his girl-friend. He is beginning a group therapy where he meets Aliki who is dealing with a difficult marriage with distant Nikos. But Nikos disappears. Dimis finds Aliki very attractive and does his best to help her. At the same time he is writing a book on the kidnapping of Eleonora, a true fact of some years ago. Aliki and Dimis will become very close and finally lovers. Do they really want Nikos to come back ?
The plot is based on the two parallel stories of disappearance, Eleonora’s and Niko’s and the way their families feel. But mainly, the author depicts a society mal de vivre as capitalism and loneliness don’t leave much space for individuals to live plainly in.
