In desperate need of a fresh start and a place to stay, Yorgos winds up in a cheap, squalid hotel in the heart of Athens, knowing that second chances are hard to come by. But there, a chance encounter with lively Strella, a transsexual prostitute, will pave the way for an unexpected relationship. And now, for the first time in a long while, Yorgos can make plans for the future. However, what happens if the secrets of the past come back with a vengeance?
