FILM SUMMARY
The island of Chios, 1960. Following the sudden death of the local rural guard, the council of the village of Tholopotamos pressures the district agronomist to appoint a new man in the place of the deceased. The available rural guards refuse to go to this village, which has a bad reputation, and where their colleague died in the line of duty. When the village of Tholopotamos resubmits its request and what’s more offers a financial incentive, four of them volunteer for the post. The agronomist appoints and subsequently dismisses one after another when each of the four fails in his mission.
