Mahi, an 80-years old woman, is a former military officer who underwent gender reassignment and became a singer. 50 years later, she returns from Germany to Greece to reconnect with her daughter in order to rebuild their relationship.

Chronis, Vaillia and Elftheria are not "IN." They are not featured in glossy magazines. They don't have perfect bodies, they don't make love on the first date. These three characters will cross paths.

It is a story of a normal, everyday Greek family that each member turns out to be wacko or gets wacko by the other members. The father is the stoic figure that accepts everything. The mother has a middle age crisis and takes advantage of her husbands inability. The older brother is a doctor of psychology and has everything under control (or believe so) and the younger brother does nothing with his life acclaiming that he is a filmmaker.

Retired in his ex wife's house in the countryside, author Andreas Politis is trying to complete the writing of a book. During his stay, a murder occurs. The following events inspire the writer, who starts getting involved when he unintentionally provides the police with some clues.

Four episodes, four instances from a man’s life covering 25 years, from 1965 in Germany to 1990 in Athens. The episodes seem to be irrelevant to one another, yet they all focus on male powerplay, reveal the self-consciousness and moderation of the protagonist’s idiosyncrasy and depict some special aspects of the Greek male mentality. Probably Nikos Panayotopoulos’ most personal film, covering a substantial period of his generation’s years, “I’m dreaming of my friends” is based on the book by Dimitris Nollas, looks a lot like a “road movie” and features an all-male cast, as if there’s no room for women in it.

An actress who shone during the "golden age" of Greek cinema now lives far from the limelight, almost isolated, with only a few friends for company. Her decision to return to the stage, following a proposal from an old colleague, will bring her into contact with younger people, but also with ghosts from the past that haunt her, prompting her to reevaluate her attitude toward her desires and life.
