Maria, a woman who is obsessed with tracking down the man who she claims killed her husband in Greece, wants her eldest grandson to enact revenge, as tradition demands.
Manos, a mild-mannered schoolteacher is sent to Australia to settle the long-standing vendetta but he is more interested in reuniting with his long lost love Nicki than shooting anyone.
