Plot

Matsoukas, a Chicago-based Greek-American married to his long-suffering wife Caliope, learns that his son is dying. Convinced that the child will fare better in Greece, Matsoukas attempts to raise the airfare to send the family there. However, all of his sources of income vanish until he is forced to fix a dice game to raise the cash. His wife eventually raises the money by stealing from her mother. There is only enough for two seats. In the end, she sends Matsoukas and the boy off with tearful embraces. On the plane, Matsoukas looks around him and begins to smile.
