Apostolos Karoulas

Thanasis decides to sell the house he lives in to get rid of his loneliness. But when he "opens his door to the world" his plans will change.

In 1960, 600,000 Greeks immigrated to Germany to live as workers - the so-called Gastarbeiters. Descendants of this migration stream, Teo, Aglaia, and Vasso, allow us a glimpse of their daily lives and reveal the effects of that migration on their present and future: The film captures the encounter of two cultures and their interaction in contemporary socio-political developments.

When a young country boy becomes of age, he must face his family's rite of passage.
