In present-day Athens, a city dominated by Americanized behaviors and life-styles, a young man aged about 20 lives with his widowed mother in one of the countless nondescript apartments lost in the great concrete jungle of the city. He wants to study astronomy at the University, and spends most of his time scrutinizing the stars and the surrounding world through an ancient telescope. On the other side of the wide avenue lives Stella with her husband and daughter. Trapped in the dull routine of a meaningless marriage devoid of joy or pleasure, she feels her youth slipping away and grey middle-age creeping up on her. Haris falls in love with her, but what are the prospects for love in this city?

When Karl XII of Sweden was defeated by Tsar Peter the Great of Russia in 1709, he fled to the Ottoman Empire and settled in Bender with his entourage for five years.
The various states of viewing nudity entered the Ottoman world on postcards before paintings. These postcards appeared in the 1890s, and became widespread in the 1910s, following the proclamation of the Second Constitutional Monarchy, traveling from hand to hand, city to city.
