Un uomo, sulla quarantina, decide di abbandonare il suo villaggio, per emigrare in Australia dove spera d'essere assunto come operaio. Ridiscende gli aridi scoscendimenti rupestri, attraversa la pianura, arriva in citta con il suo mare, il suo porto. Questa odissea della miseria, dal villaggio natale fino alla nave, per imbarcarsi verso l'ignoto si articola in tre storie.

Forced by extreme poverty to leave Greece and create a better future for himself in far-off Australia, the grizzled mountaineer, Antonis Niakas, heads to the bustling port of Piraeus. Before leaving his birthplace, probably, forever, the weary man pays a visit to his dear friend, Fotis Lianakas, who is a blacksmith, only to come face-to-face with the unforeseen complications of love, and bitter rivalry. After this pivotal event, Antonis has a chance encounter with the ferociously beautiful shepherdess, Nanota, whose wild sexual awakening triggers desire and violence. Then, as Antonis makes his way to the port-city, yet another encounter with an estranged young couple on the brink of separation becomes a painful reminder that, when love ends, life is ugly and unbearable. Can Antonis change his mind before the ship sails? —Nick Riganas
