Eirinaios, an incurable romantic and aspiring filmmaker unable to make ends meet, is already two months behind on rent. However, the passionate director refuses to give up on his dreams and accept an ordinary life. Fantasising about making an independent sci-fi movie, Eirinaios embarks on a challenging mission to find sufficient funding, only to have the door slammed in his face by every producer in town. Then, one day, Tolis, a shady entrepreneur and former adult movie producer, takes an unexplained interest in the vain young filmmaker and his uncommercial work. After all, he seems determined to make a timeless love story. But although Tolis believes in Eirinaios, offering him all the time in the world to create a cinematic masterpiece, the artistic new protégé, too, must do something in return. As the weeks turn into months, Eirinaios must answer a simple question. Is he willing to compromise his artistic integrity to finish his perpetually incomplete, no-budget story?
