The Miracle of the Sargasso Sea

In a small Greek lagoon town, two women eke out their dreary lives, dreaming of finally escaping the backwater. Elisabeth (Angeliki Papoulia) was an ambitious policewoman before she was transferred here from Athens. Now she is lonely, bad-tempered and usually hungover. Rita (Youla Boudali) is the withdrawn, secretive sister of a pop singer who performs at the local disco. His sudden death shakes the town and challenges the social fabric. Elisabeth is assigned to solve the case and the further she gets with her investigation, the more secrets emerge from the quagmire of the small town.
