The play is set in a small provincial town near the border, after the collapse of the front, following the German invasion. The writer, without resorting to the exploitation of the heroism of the children who wrote the epic of the war in Albania, he follows the steps of an adventurous type, in the drama of a mother who had lost her children in the Front. The kind feelings of the mother and the beautiful mental world of the daughter and generally the beauty of the people living around them, within the tragic fate lying ahead for all Greece, awakes humanism in the consciousness of the hero, and makes him reconsider his ideas for life.
