The German occupation of Thessaloniki in WWII, including the deportation of the city's Jews to Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen. Vassilis Tsitsanis was a famous musician (song writer and bouzouki player) who owned a cafe like that prominent in the film, but his role with respect to the resistance, fictionally dramatized in the movie, is not known.
