Crete, 1367. Donata, niece of the great Venetian feudal lord of the island Marco Grandonico, instigator of the Revolution of Saint Titus, hides her pendant in the floor of the church of Panagia Vryomeni, along with a manuscript containing the account of the events of her life.
Her health has been irreparably shaken by the days she spent in the Serenissima, reminiscing about the figure of her beloved Alexios Kallergis and the happy life she lost in Crete, as history changed her fate forever.
Crete, present day. The monk Philotheos of the Vryomeni monastery discovers Donata's hidden secret, accompanied by a woman pregnant, older than him, and an old love, who decides to settle in the monastery because she believes her son must be born there…
Venetian Crete and Serenissima, revolution and sacrificial love, past and present. People thirsty to love and be loved, struggling to live free so they can dream. And amidst all this, faith, the Catholic and Orthodox doctrines, the dominance of the stronger, the collapsing Byzantine state, and above all, an isolated, peaceful monastery ready to embrace a shattered body and a wounded soul.
