Praising Black representation and condemning the power structures that suppress it, a mother delivers an impassioned speech to her distant son.
The Cradle That Rocked You

Two suitors reject her immediately and she rejects the third suitor, but falls in love with the fourth, a diplomat who turns out to be a fraud. The suitor of the youngest sister, Kiki, Markos Spyropoulos, who is a building contractor, decides to bring order to the house. Already living there are Barbara's lazy future husband, Tryfonas, and Theodora's fiancé, Pantelis, who is a lifelong student. Filio is sent to Australia to find a groom, but she returns on the same ship to finally marry a middle-aged man, Prokopis.
