Summary Andreas is a young man who owns a convenience store in an Athenian neighborhood and, with Stella, who dreams of becoming a singer, tries to survive in this new reality of massive unemployment and lack of opportunities. Confronted by this dead-end situation, Stella leaves Athens and tries her luck as a singer in the many nightclubs in the provinces. Andreas goes searching for Stella with a friend of his, a writer gathering material for his next book among the rural dives and music joints, and they eventually find her. However, completely unexpectedly and for no apparent reason, a group of Albanian white slavers catch Stella and take her to a snowy and mountainous spot. After numerous clashes, Andreas manages to free her and finally holds her tightly in his arms again – this time for good.
