Plot
Pivoting around a shiny counterfeit gold sovereign freshly milled from the clandestine workshop of the otherwise-honest goldsmith, Anargiros, four brief vignettes inextricably interweave against the backdrop of human imperfections, and man's unquenchable desire for enrichment. From this perspective, dangerous and inhumanly selfish seduction gives birth to a single fake coin--the embodiment of a lifetime's worth of accomplishments--that ignominiously finds its way into a ragged panhandler's hole-ridden pocket. From there, ironically, the seemingly Godsent gift becomes an impoverished orphan's intolerable burden--and then, by a twist of fate--a love-smitten couple of penniless young bohemians decide to use the precious finding as the foundation of their ardent, interminable devotion. Can true love be based on spurious hope?
