Christo has left his parents in Athens and moved to Stockholm. In his early twenties, a scholarship from the Swedish government gives him the opportunity to study the history of ideas at university, something he had always dreamed of. But he is too lonely in Stockholm, where he survives with precarious jobs in companies run by other immigrants like him. He has not yet mastered the language and Greece is still present in his head and in his heart. But when he meets Rania, his whole world turns upside down.
