Mübadele! Exchange! In the summer of 1924, a large part of the Greek population is uprooted from the soil of their unforgettable homelands and starts for mother Greece!
Among them a mother, Eleni, with her three small children. Ioustinos, Stavrakis and Getshimani. They are uprooted from their place, from their home... Their possessions, their friends, the life they have built, everything, is abandoned... They leave the sacred ground that covers their dead... They will be left there, the sleepers cannot to follow...
The heartbreak of saying goodbye, hovers over the packed household, in the dark, disturbed rooms of the father's house. Just before the big trip, they take a picture on the balcony of the house, to remember it. And then, an icon is reverently placed in a bohcha... And the key to the front door, a big black key, with a cross on top, is hastily hidden on the mother's back. They will turn around and put the key in the front door again. Will they make it...?
And the great adventure begins... The joys that marked them until now and the sorrows, are left behind, in beloved Cappadocia, in this strange place with the ancient underground states. They have to cross the sea that separates them from their new homeland. Holding her children by the hand, she begins the journey... What will become of them? What will be their fate? And sweet Greece, which hid its flag in its trunk for fear of the Turks, how will it welcome them?
Nevsehir (Naples), Istanbul, Thessaloniki (Naples), 3 cities in one story. Eleni's courage in a few words... "Let's get there alive, and God has it!".
