"In the end, her parents set out to leave. They kissed their grandchildren one by one, Luka and finally Zampio."
"Every evening, I will think of you, my daughter, until you return. May you have my blessing in your new life."
"And I, mother, will think of you every evening," replied Zampio, unable to hold back her tears any longer. She stayed at the threshold, watching her inconsolable mother walk away, her father walking beside her with his head bowed. Helpless to offer comfort. How far apart are thought and action? How far apart are the heart and the tongue?
During the lives of three consecutive generations, the family will experience all of the history of modern Greece, up to our days. The departure from Santorini, life on Poros, and finally settling in Piraeus. Beginning with the acquaintance of the new place, the family grows and moves towards the future. As the years pass and events of modern history occur, both the character of Piraeus and the lives of its inhabitants change, among whom are our heroes.
A story that revolves around the birth and life of Maria, the Edelweiss of Piraeus, as well as all those who played a role in her life and the development of her personality. Memories, values, stories that will become an invaluable legacy for the continuers of this family.
Life for everyone is unique; every person, when they leave, leaves behind indelible marks in the hearts, minds, and lives of others. This is our true legacy.
