Plot: On a quiet but restless summer night of the turbulent 1944, the German conquerors set up an ambush in Kokkinia, a poor commoners' neighbourhood of Piraeus, and manage to capture Kosmas, a ruthless black marketeer, during the celebrations for his marriage with Antigone. Under those circumstances, Kosmas will soon have to face an impossible and agonising dilemma: he must betray his country to save his life. But is Kosmas really a traitor?
