After Elizabeth and Nikiforos lose their beloved family—Achilles, Natalia, and little Elizabeth—to a permanent move to the United States, Nikiforos’ desperate attempt to stop them lands him under six months of house arrest. Frustrated by their wives’ restrictions and their own mid-life crises—Mimi’s heart condition, Pavlos and Maria’s new parenthood, and Eirini’s turn to monasticism—the trio of men make up a plan: they take over their favorite tavern, hold their (ex-)wives hostage, and throw one epic, liberating feast.
