Greek Sea, World War II. An Italian ship leaves a handful of soldiers in a little island; their mission is to spot enemy ships and to hold the island in case of attack. The village of the island seems abandoned and there isn't a single enemy in sight, so the soldiers begin to relax a little. Things change when their ship is hit and destroyed by the enemy, and the soldiers find themselves abandoned there.
Three families end up in the same rented house. Throughout the summer, they become friends and rediscover how to enjoy life.
A wealthy broker, his loyal butler, and a poor street seller all see their social positions change in a twist of fate.
