A jewel of architecture, Villa Levidis hosted dozens of iconic film shootings in Athens from the 60s to the 80s. Some decades later, on a sunny day, a daydreamer rests on its ruins while fantasizing about cruising with a stranger in the now-destroyed mansion. Queer lust meets the golden era of Greek mainstream cinema in a dialogue around gender roles and social norms.

The Driver drives a wounded diplomat, who carries a mysterious briefcase, while under helicopter attack. During the attack the briefcase is struck by a bullet, causing a display on it to begin counting down, and it to leak an unknown fluid from the bullet hole. The Driver manages to destroy his pursuers, but refuses to proceed without knowing the contents of the damaged briefcase. It is revealed that the diplomat guards a human heart for a peacekeeper, whose life is needed for the continued freedom of the people. The case is delivered, and the tyrant is forced to give up his attempt to take the country by force. The Driver leaves for another mission.
