10 Dec 1999 • Comedy, Drama, Family • 1h 45m
It's been nearly thirty long years since the passion-ridden gathering at a schoolmate's house, and an unexpected phone call by that same long-lost friend triggers a whirlwind of emotions, as the aerospace engineer, Stefanos Karouzos, finds himself taken by surprise. Unable to turn down his old classmate's warm invitation, Stefanos heads to the memory-laden place not knowing what to expect, as vivid flashbacks of an innocent childhood in 1960s-Greece pave the way for a sentimental trip down memory lane. But, surprisingly, Stefanos still has the taste of love's first kiss in his mouth--and even though she can't openly admit it--so does his dear first cousin, Marina. Back then, a chaste kiss marked the beginning of an impossible relationship. Now, the same peck on the lips is about to reunite two estranged cousins at the fascinating get-together. However, is Marina still having feelings for Stefanos?
