To reunite with his grandmother, young Vassilis runs away from the orphanage, roams around the heart of Athens and then decides to take the train for Tripolis. He wanders about the mountainous regions of Arcadia and comes upon a young woman whose car has broken down. The two of them form an unexpected but equally beneficial alliance and continue their wanderings the whole summer, until the boy returns to his grandmother's house, a dilapidated ruin with no sign of life.

A firm believer in the idea that a collection needs to be upheld at least by four generations and comparing this continuity to a relay race, Nahit Kabakcı began creating the Huma Kabakcı Collection from the 1980s onwards.
