Another great success by Mirella Papaikonomou, which outlines in the most dramatic way the catalytic power of absence. The series is filmed, for the most part, in enchanting locations in Crete. The messes at his daughter's wedding party hide his plans. In the wake of the mantinades, Sifis packs his things and says goodbye to his wife after 22 years of marriage. The closed society of Chania is in uproar. And as she desperately demands "purification", his wife will search for the reasons that led Sifis to this decision. And while he is absent, Stathis, his close childhood friend, stands by his wife's side. Can the absence of a loved one prove worse than his presence? And how catalytic can this absence prove to be for people's relationships and emotions?
