Freshly arrived from London, the Greek King of all hippies, Antonis Mavromatis aka "Dirladas", returns to Athens incognito to have an arranged marriage with the beautiful and equally free-spirited hippie-girl, Lisa. However, when Antonis sees for the first time Lisa's older sister, Aliki, without much thought, decides that she is the woman of his dreams, even though she is engaged for the past six years to Yorgos. Now, the groom from London will do anything in his power to win his charming soulmate; nevertheless, the girls are not prepared to take this awkward situation lying down. Will the persistent Dirladas return to the United Kingdom empty-handed?
