Stathis, who is the director of a corporation, after the death of his lord confesses his daughter, but her mother, who is also a major shareholder in the company, wanting to dominate the situation itself, degrades her name. Stathis' reaction is direct and "satanic". He devises a kidnapping pattern of his stunt during a fun party they give at home, but the authorized kidnappers make a mistake, and in his place they capture him. His mother-in-law refuses to pay the ransom and he is in the most difficult position to convince the kidnappers that the target was not his but his poor homeland.
