Behind every great man usually hides a great woman. However, everything is turned upside down when Teresa Volani, a student, model, and lover of the famous sculptor Angelos Averinos, transforms into a radiant and self-illuminating star. The teacher feels like he is losing his pedestal. Ego blinds him. The clash is inevitable even though the works, which are actually sculptures of his student, bear his own signature.

Against the backdrop of interwar Athens and the decadent freedom of the cabarets where anything goes, a stormy love affair that transcends the borders of Greece leads the heroes to a tumultuous life. From the ecstatic comments and adoration to the whirlwind of flame and destruction.

Alongside Averinos and Teresa, the androgynous Kalyso, the elusive Anna, and the fearful Themistocles will try to grasp happiness. Will Teresa Volani's star rise under the shadow of Averinos?
