Set with the Athens 2004 Olympics just over a year away, forty Gypsy families are forced to abandon their settlement next to the main stadium so that the land can be used for a parking lot. The film follows Prokopis Nikolau, a watermelon seller who has lived his entire life in this settlement, as he struggles to find a new home for himself and his family.
