A film-maker, Alexandros (Brogi), auditions a succession of old men who speak the line, 'It's me, it's me.' Tiring of the task, he goes to a café and sees his perfect actor, a lavender-seller. Alexandros follows the man to Piraeus where, it transpires, the film-maker is to meet his father Spyros, a resistance fighter (Katrakis) returning to Greece after 32 years in the Soviet Union. In "Voyage to Cythera," we follow Spyros' long and erratic wanderings in an attempt to reach the Greek island of Cythera. The man spent so many years away from all his family and friends, and is now back in his native country. Now older, filled with frustration, Spyros prefers not to talk about his past.
