Lefteris Mouratos, a successful contractor and advocate of tourism development, aspires to transform Alyki Thassos into an international center for luxury vacations, offering significant financial incentives to the local residents, who overcome their objections. Only Savvas the murderer, who has served his sentence and lives secluded there, strongly opposes selling his land. He and the mysterious wife of shipowner Antonellou, who has abandoned the island for forty years and stubbornly refuses to negotiate with the ambitious contractor.
What is the role of young Spyros, who suddenly appears as a seasonal waiter at the beach café? Is the old murder the reason why Professor Filias interrupts the sale of Mrs. Antonellou's house? Were the fields the cause for the murderer to lift the stone, and silence the price of everyone else's tranquility?
From the past emerges the ghost of an unfulfilled love, like marble from those that archaeologists have been digging up for years and still dig up on this wounded peninsula, which, like a tongue made of marble, dives into the sea trying to wash away its ancient wounds.
