“It is that magical moment when time itself seems to stand still, when you try to escape but find yourself trapped, like a little bird caught in the golden net woven between her eyes.”
For Nikola, that moment was destined to bind him to Vaggelio forever.
The protagonists bask in the life-giving waters of love, inspired by the timeless tale of Erofili and Panaretos. They live out their own love story and fight for it, no matter how far apart they may be. But do they possess the weapons and the strength to fight against fate, which has woven its own net around their lives?
A journey into pastoral life and the magic of nature, beginning in the Pindus Mountains in the late nineteenth century and reaching as far as Megalo Kastro in Crete, shortly after the island’s liberation.
The continuation of Marouso’s story, in which she, as an emissary of fate, must choose between duty and the love that binds the two protagonists, is an elegy to the greatness of love—a love capable of healing the wounds of the past and scattering rays of light.
