Greek filmmaker Apostolos Tegopoulos directed this lengthy, melodramatic, but fairly entertaining drama about a poor man named Petros (Nikos Xanthopoulos), who beats the odds by putting himself through medical school and eventually becoming one of the top heart surgeons in Greece. A cruel wealthy man (Theodoros Moridis) falsely accuses him of malpractice in a fatal case, and the innocent Petros is sent to prison until his girlfriend (Katerina Vassilakou) rallies support for his cause, freeing him from jail and vindicating his medical stature. Lavrentis Dianellos co-stars with Stefanos Stratigos, Angela Zillia, and Katy Panou. ~ Robert Firsching, All Movie Guide
