On the Greek island of Patmos, St John the Divine had a vision and wrote The Apocalypse. The cave in which he lived and worked still stands, and archaeologists from all over the world have explored these hills and valleys for 2,000 years in search of great historical treasure.
Now on this sun-splashed island Katerina careens her bicycle down a steep hill while her nine-year-old daughter, Agapoula, exhilarated, hangs on for dear life. Katerina is unmarried, owns the village taverna, and lives a fulfilled if simple life. The last thing she needs is an unsettling romance, but that's exactly what she's about to get.
Down in the harbour, the ferry pulls in to the docks. Tourists, shoppers, locals returning home stream into the village - and one stranger, Eric, an American archeologist who has come to the island in search of a lost biblical artefact that his father had searched for in vain. Tierney, the resident archeologist and local character, shows Eric the ropes. When Eric and Katerina meet - Opa!
But the course of true love is never straight, and soon Eric determines that the ancient chalice he seeks is most likely buried right under Katerina's beloved taverna. The Mayor and the townspeople want the acclaim and tourists that the chalice will bring - Tierney needs further funding to keep his ongoing project alive - and Eric wants to fulfill his (and his late father's) life-long quest.

Funny and bizarre, this is the heart-warming tale of an unlikely family striving to achieve spiritual fulfilment in the murky waters of the 21st century.
In a quiet corner of England a former rabbi is living a remarkable life based on the ancient patriarchy of the Old Testament. Six years ago, God told the rabbi that he was to become a Hebrew King, and like a good patriarch, take multiple wives. Now he raises horses, runs four second-hand furniture shops in Brighton and Hove and lives with seven women who, while not legally his spouses, believe their union is sanctioned by God. Each seeks a different sort of spiritual fulfilment: from Chava, widowed after 25 years of marriage and the oldest of the wives, to Tracy, who has been banished from the house for resisting Philip’s patriarchal role. As the film progresses, the filmmaker gets extraordinary close to the family but reserves judgement, preferring to present them with all their foibles, strengths and contradictions.
