The setting for the film is 1922 -- the Greek army is leaving Asia Minor and in its wake, the Turkish army rounds up the remaining Greek civilians and either kills them, or sends them on forced marches outside of the region.
Koundouros' film is based on the autobiographical novel by Greek novelist Elias Venezis (a pseudonym for his real name Elias Mellos) entitled "Number 31328", where he describes his experiences during his 14-month stay in a hard-labor concentration camp. The number in the novel's title references the number he was assigned as a prisoner. The film consists on the development of personal tragedies of three different characters – a wife's merchant, a professor and a 17-year-old adolescent – against the backdrop of the displacement of more than one million Greek Orthodox Christians.
