The story of a wealthy widow, who after ten years of mourning her husband decides to follow a liberal lifestyle. This movie reflects the trend in Greek society of late 60's to go on to a less conservative lifestyle in a very humorous way with great performances. Vlahopoulou, holding the leading role, faces the opposition of her older sister and brother, who want to get her married to a rich very old man, while Vlahopoulou is only 40 years old. Of course she doesn't want this. She falls in love with a handsome musician who plays violin. She asks her close friend, performed by Zarokosta, to help her hide her relationship with the musician from her brother and sister. Finally, after many humorous scenes she leaves to Italy for vacations with the musician. A movie which makes one burst into laughter. Excellent comedy and excellent performances by the so-called "Lucille ball" of Greece, Mrs Rena Vlahopoulou. She is admired by the Greek audience and loved by many generations.

It is a great movie of two major actors of the golden period of the Greek cinema, Rena Vlahopoulou and Labros Konstandaras. These two after many years of marriage and having two children, Kostas Voutsas and Hloi Liaskou, they face a problem in their marriage. Her husband is angry with her obsession with playing cards. After many failures trying to convince her quit playing this game, that costs them a lot of money, and also abstracts her from her family matters, he decides to cause her jealousy in order to make her pay some attention to him too. He chooses one of her single friends, a beautiful young woman, and when she discovers it she abandons playing cards and focuses on not to lose her husband. During all these scenes, she is against the potential marriage of her daughter to a jinx, as she calls him, and whenever she meets this future groom she makes some characteristic movements to break the jinx! Fantastic performances of Vlahopoulou and the rest. Also memorable performance by Sapfo Notara performing an old woman, maid of Vlahopoulou, who assists her in hiding the money losses of Vlahopoulou from her husband.
