Kristine, in her early twenties, works as a tourist guide at the site of Greek Olympia. There she meets Martin, a teacher in his forties from Germany. They instantly begin a steamy affair. At the same time Kristine refuses to leave her alcoholic lover Vassili. When Vassili finally dies, Martin and Kristine retire to a solitary cabin in the mountains. Mercilessly exposed to each other and the absolute demands of their love, they take each other apart in a desperate fight between Logos and Eros, which ends with Kristine's leaving the cabin, and Martin, for good.
