Athens, 1960s. Pavlos, a heartthrob womanizer, suddenly finds himself entangled with four women who are vying for his attention. Rene, a light-hearted, charming coquette; Carmen, a jealous, domineering young woman; Annouska, a strict, passionate woman; and Dora, his girlfriend for the month. Pavlos, who has no idea how this mess came about, tries to extricate himself without any of them finding out about each other. His allies are his loyal gay servant, Julius, and his shy cousin, Vangelis, who comes from the village to Athens to find a good girl to marry. The confusion begins, and while Pavlos, who is terrified of the idea of marriage, tries to get rid of them, they resist and seem determined to claim him, come what may. But nothing is as it seems.
