SYNOPSIS
Jupiter, father of the gods, has decided that Helen Kenyon, a fair American mortal, will be his latest conquest, to the consternation of his wife, Juno. She traipses around the Greek countryside in various ineffectual mortal disguises searching for her cheating husband. Their son Mercury escorts Helen to an inn near Athens, where Jupiter woos her in the guise of her husband, Art. The next day, Helen realizes she has been deceived; meeting the god face to face, she rejects his offer of immortality, insisting that her husband's love is all she needs. Throw into the mix, Niki Skolianos, American gangster turned innkeeper, who trades barbs with Juno in her mortal disguise, and Niko's ambitious niece, Chloe, providing a love interest for Mercury. |
