    • Synopsis
    • Andrew Pappas is in debt and visits his father, with his British wife Martha and son Nicholas, after 24 years, to borrow money. On his way there, he finds out that Emmanuel died and left them a will. Alexandra also hears about the will just in time a standard amount put in her account for many years has stopped going in.

      At the funeral Andrew finds out that the one condition of the will is that the money will be given to the sibling who invests it in the best way in a single day. The notary Lazarou will judge their investment plans and announce the winner. Fortunately for Andrew, his sister is not there.

      Andrew thinks how to get the 86,400, Martha has visions of Fanis and Alexandra arrives only to worsen matters. She knows that Nicholas is her deceased brother's Fanis son, something she kept secret for years.

      Nicholas leaves the house after arguing with his dad and Martha leaves the house after Alexandra’s blackmail. She boards a tourist boat at night to clear her mind.

      Lazarou worries because of the will’s catch: the 86,400 is not money, but the seconds of a day. This is the fortune they have to invest in the best possible way.

      Andrew can’t find Nicholas or Martha. He argues with Alexandra who reveals that Fanis is Nicholas’ real father. Andrew knew the truth all along and kept silent for love of Martha.

      The boat Martha boarded crashes on the rocks and she dies just like Fanis. The grief brings the siblings closer.
