The Cradle That Rocked You (1966)
Three sisters, Barbara, Theodora, and Kiki, have inherited an old mansion from their father, but they cannot sell it unless they first find a husband for their fourth sister, Filio, who is both deaf and dumb. Two suitors reject her immediately and she rejects the third suitor, but falls in love with the fourth, a diplomat who turns out to be a fraud. The suitor of the youngest sister, Kiki, Markos Spyropoulos, who is a building contractor, decides to bring order to the house. Already living there are Barbara's lazy future husband, Tryfonas, and Theodora's fiancé, Pantelis, who is a lifelong student.
