Man folk as they have to go through special training to suit the new environment. Very quickly, however, the student becomes a teacher of high society and gives lessons of honesty and fairness in the pretentious and sometimes scammers bourgeois, whose grandparents were sailing folk jobber.
Freshly arrived from Europe, Yannis Kolaouzos--the refined and well-educated son of the humble and dignified tavern owner, Yorgis Kolaouzos--and his aristocratic wife, Riri Kalantzi, return to Greece burdened with a difficult task. Intent on submitting the unsuspecting toiler to rigorous training to acquire the rudiments of Savoir Vivre, the couple have a long way to go before they can present Mr Yorgis to the bride's high-brow family and social circle. Under those circumstances, the daily regimen is strict and inflexible, designed to transform the unrefined taverner into a genteel and courteous gentleman; however, is he the one who needs schooling? In the end, is it possible that Mr Yorgis could be the tutor, and not the other way round?
