Based on the allegory of sleep, the film depicts the idle lives of three young sons and their wealthy father, who have inherited a luxurious villa in an Athenian suburb. Unburdened by the need to work,They seem resigned to their lot and even the younger son’s efforts to escape with the help of the sensual maid are frustrated.
