The Pessiridis family-wealthy Greeks-sell their department store and flee their home in Russia because of the coming revolution. They take only a cache of smuggled Faberge diamonds and rubies.

What should be an adventure turns into a nightmare when they narrowly escape capture by the Ottoman Empire during World War I. They once again flee and sail for Greece; forced to overcome loss and fight for survival.

Murder and lingering wars keep them from their beloved homeland still, and they seek refuge that lasts years, until peace is restored.

Finally, they make it to Greece, scrounging and living on the constant sale of precious gems, only to have tragedy strike when they lose their fortune and have to contend with World War II.

Over the years, the journey of life shows the Pessiridis’ that sticking together as a family is key. Together they triumph. Apart, will they fall?
