Description
We are in Eretria, a coastal town of Euboea, southeast of Chalkida.
The film opens with the filmmaker’s group of friends who admire the ancient theater of Eretria. The lens gives us a better look with a panoramic view and we notice that follows the three-part structure of Hellenistic theaters: koilon or cavea (the seating sections of Greek and Roman theatres and amphitheatres), orchestra and scene building. We also stand out the Mount Olympus which is in the background to the east. A man seems to show something to the company that keeps on exploring and admiring the landscape.

The view changes with one more panoramic shot of the coastal road. We see buildings, a tavern almost by the sea as well as boats that are moored.

The film closes with footage from Pezonisi, a small island in Eretria that is connected by a small strip of land.
