Plot
A wealthy businessman invites his two nieces to travel from the rustic island of Corfu to stay with him in Athens.

She has her own mind, however, and falls in love with her uncle's chauffeur who was tasked with introducing her to city life. Her younger sister provides comic relief by flirting with the male servants in the house.
