On the day of his young grandson Leonidas' birthday, an aged Vasilis remembers the days of 1944 when he was a young rebel fighting against the Germans. He and another soldier have lost their company and are wandering in the countryside when they fall upon a German ambush. The Germans are hunting down two Italian soldiers a few months after Italys truce with the Allies. One of the two Italians gets killed during the scramble while the second one follows the two Greeks who manage to escape. For common soldiers, the treaty is a difficult reality to embrace. They cannot see each other as allies a few mere months after fighting as enemies.
