Marika Ninu and Jimis Markou meet again at the legendary tavern "Jimis the Fat" and together they unfold the novel life of the Turkish-Greek woman who made history in Greek music. The scene transforms into a tavern and the audience becomes patrons and witnesses of the most significant events and the unknown facets of the tragic life of the singer.

All of this is set against the backdrop of a Greece trying to heal its wounds from World War I and the Greco-Turkish War. Before it was shattered by World War II, with the Occupation, famine, the National Schism, and the Civil War. A Greece, however, that never stops having fun. And singing. Because Ninu's life is inextricably linked to the trajectory of folk music, the nightlife of Athens, the rebetiko, and the songs with which we entertain ourselves even today.

Marika Ninu lived a short but tumultuous life. She loved deeply, suffered greatly, and experienced much pain. She was a remarkable woman, shaped by life. A unique blend of explosive personality and tremendous sensitivity. And she left behind a legacy worth recognizing and learning about for the younger generations.

A bittersweet work, which pays tribute to the refugees of the Greco-Turkish War and specifically to the Armenian singer Evangelia Atamian, who was uprooted from her homeland in Asia Minor, grew up in the refugee city of Kokkinia, was renamed Marika Ninu, and was glorified like no other in her time.
