Synopsis

Feeling suffocated in a loveless, dead-end marriage, smothered Olga, the sad-eyed trophy wife of the successful industrialist, Iraklis, summons up the courage to leave him for another man: the grizzled former pop idol and now financially hard-pressed nightclub boss, Manos.

But, no one steals from Iraklis, and as beautiful Olga's leather travel bag contains something even more precious than love, the deceived husband swears revenge.

Now, holed up in a small cottage in the middle of nowhere, the doomed lovers can only wait and hope that they will stay under the radar long enough, as every cut-throat in town is after them and the hefty reward.

And, more and more, deceit, greed, and ambition take over. Can there be forgiveness for the sinners?
