Director and writer Nicos Perakis tries to put a comic spin on the heroine's exploits as she bounces from one extreme situation to another. First she is in the process of getting a law degree but has to clean offices to support herself, a side-job that leads to an affair with a wealthy shipping magnate. After the two fall in love, she has a child, he loses everything, and she becomes a prostitute to support all three of them. Eventually, she falls in love with a singer, wins beauty contests, starts acting, and becomes famous. While she is working in one play, her director runs off to join a guerrilla movement and he is killed -- spurring her on to quit the acting world, become a teacher, and look for her very first lover. In the meantime, he has married an American -- a neurotic woman who bodes ill for the man's future. After coming around full-circle, the heroine might have to start all over again, if she can find a career she has not tried.
