By a twist of fate, the incorruptible examiner, Nikos Fanariotis, crosses paths with Yorgos Zarifis, a petty thief, on a quiet stretch of road. Then, unexpectedly, the dying con man reveals a shocking secret: he is the real culprit behind the brutal homicide of an influential businessman. As a result, knowing that an innocent is behind bars for the past hard twelve months, Nikos sets his sights on releasing his former lover and the deceased's wife, Elvira Viaskou, utterly unaware, however, that he has already set in motion a dangerous and well-orchestrated conspiracy. More and more, every step Fanariotis takes, brings him closer to the solution; nevertheless, it takes courage to face the facts. Is the young civil servant prepared to confront the truth?
