Nelly has escaped from her wealthy and controlling family. As she dances in a strip club, she meets Markos, a charismatic gangster who helps her run away from her stepfather’s henchmen. Markos soon becomes her protector and lover. He brings her into Broadway, Athens, an abandoned entertainment complex squatted by a small community of dancers, tramps and thieves. For a while, everything goes well, even when Broadway hosts a mysterious man wanted dead by Athens’ most dangerous mafia. However, when Markos gets arrested, the newcomer will take an unexpectedly important role in that place.
