I am ... a "prostitute". The film refers to the harrowing life of a prostitute, Rita, who is a daughter of a prostitute - with her mother now in a very difficult situation as she is ill and miserable. However, she seems to be reconciled with her fate. But when she learns that her promoter, Takis, is trying to corrupt her daughter's daughter, she rages up and goes to the murder.
At midnight, on a deserted Athenian street, a beautiful woman named Eleni Chalkia is fatally stabbed by a stranger, who immediately disappears into the shadows. The murderer is Ioannis Zachos (Manos Logiadis), a young man lacking in both mental and sexual stability, who lives out his erotic fantasies through purifying violence. He often fantasizes about killing beautiful women, in this way compensating for his deficient manhood and satisfying his passion for power. When he is arrested, he immediately confesses his crimes, which is a relief to the police, who have been accused of gross ineptitude by the press. During the trial that follows, the relentless question, “who is ultimately guilty? Man or society?” is again raised.
