Description

Greek-American Yianna embarks on a desperate quest in 1955 Woodland, California to find her missing sister and discovers her own sense of purpose and the profound significance of family, love, and forgiveness.

Woodland, California, 1955. A career and independence feel worlds away for 18-year-old Greek-American Yianna Diamantopoulos. Her sheltered life in her uncle's bakery is shattered when her older sister Olympia vanishes without a trace. Local authorities are quick to dismiss the concerns of immigrant families, leaving Yianna with a painful realization: she's on her own.

Driven by fierce love for her sister and burning frustration with a system that ignores women like them, Yianna turns to her Uncle Stavros and his three bachelor friends who helped raise the sisters. While Stavros' bakery is a neighborhood staple, the back room hides a risky secret - small-time illegal gambling and winemaking operations that could destroy his life if exposed.

Bound by blood and a shared desperation, Yianna and Stavros navigate the hidden corners and suspicious characters of rural northern California in the 1950s. They confront the shadows of Olympia's disappearance and uncover deeper truths about themselves. Yianna's unwavering tenacity and Stavros' street-smart instincts race against time, proving that even in the face of hostile indifference, unbreakable family bonds can be the most powerful force of all.
