A popular and honest man, Dimitris (Dimitris Papamichael), who works at the Perama yards, sings at a local tavern in the evenings. One day, his revered brother proposes to break a villa, and to prove to him that these things do not need any special capacity, he accepts the challenge. The noise they do, however, awakens the daughter of the owner, Zoitsa (Zoe Laskari). The two invaders are surprise. Zoitsa, who understands that Dimitris is not a villain, asks her not to hand him over to the police and is listening. Shortly thereafter, the girl visits the owner of the shipyards in which Dimitris works. The two young men are reunited.

Plot

Much to his disappointment, the honest dockhand and aspiring singer, Dimitris, realises that all his efforts to convince his good-for-nothing younger brother, Yorgos, to get an honest job have gone down the drain. As a result, to prove that a life of crime is not only immoral but also dangerous, Dimitris accepts to break into a lavish suburban villa, on one condition: should they fail to pull off the robbery, Yorgos will have to find a job. Of course, nothing goes as planned, and as the daughter of the mansion's owner, Zoitsa, finds out that Dimitris is not a professional thief, an unexpected romantic relationship starts to bloom. However, Dimitris is unaware that beautiful Zoe is harbouring a big secret; one that threatens their already fragile affair. Is there a future for the star-crossed pipe-dreamers?
