In a complex interweaving of drama, history and allegory, this Theo Angelopoulos film tells the story of the tours of a theatrical troupe along the Greek isles between 1939 and 1952. In each town, the troupe enacts the play "Golfo the Shepherdess." Simultaneously, an actress in the troupe is searching for a way to exact vengeance against her mother whom she believes was responsible for the death of her father.

Her brother, a resistance fighter, helps her accomplish this. This level of the story re-creates, in "real life," the classical Greek drama of the Orestaia. At the same time, Greece is fully embroiled in the Second World War, political struggles, and its own Civil War.
