Hassanakis is a young Muslim boy of Turkish descent growing up on Crete during WWI. But with the Great Powers tussling over the collapsing Ottoman Empire and the island's Christians in rebellion, an outbreak of ethnic violence forces his family to flee to the Cretan City of Chania. Fifteen generations of his family have lived on the island and until now he has never had any reason not to think he is a Cretan.
