A journey of discovery begins. A journey to Pontos with Iro Saia. A journey not to Asia Minor, but to the Pontos within Greece. Exactly 100 years after their violent return, the Akrites, who prospered from 800 BC until 1922 AD in the areas surrounding the Black Sea, managed to maintain their historical identity and continue to be one of the most dynamic parts of Hellenism. We visit the places where they settled after their Uprooting, to shed light on the values that have kept this breed so special for 3,000 years. What are the elements that have imbued the soul of the Greeks of Pontos with such beauty and strength? What are the individual traits of this glorious Greek race?

The journey in search of "The Treasure of Pontos" continues... First off, reference is made to the widely-sung "Pontian mother", but also to the role of women in the societies of the Greeks of the Pontos in general. Anna Theofylaktou speaks to us and we are given a tour of the Pontian Women's Care Union in Thessaloniki. Next up, we are given a tour of the Pontos Association of Thessaloniki by its chairman, G. Lysaridis. Kiki and Mary show us around the traditional farm "Perek" and tell us about the benefits of the Pontian diet. Next, Professor Konstantinos Fotiadis and singer Panagiotis Theodoridis invite us to a party at the Pontian Students' Club of Thessaloniki.
