Spring has come to this Cypriot village, bringing with it an open invitation for Socrates to indulge in his favourite pasttimes: setting off homemade fireworks, tormenting local pensioners, spying on his brother's girlfriends, and defying his beleaguered mother. An uneasy truce is reached after an unfortunate accident with a box of matches, and a lazy peace is restored.
But behind the scenes in this seemingly idyllic backwater, an abused wife plots revenge on her husband, a scheming miser falls in love and a dangerous predator stalks the innocent. Spring brings a rude awakening to all of the villagers and Socrates in particular. The jasmine-scented air carries with it real menace that will shake this close-knit community to its very core...
