The inciting incident could involve Léa finding an old trunk in the attic while looking for a birthday gift for her grandfather. Inside, there's an old photograph, a diary, and a locket. She becomes intrigued by the mystery of the locket, leading her to uncover family secrets.
The Rutopoulos family gathers for a grand dîner , the diary and locket centerpieces on a table heaped with gatsoùlakia (Greek meatballs) and Léa’s crayon-laden sketch of "Thea." Grand-Mère shares tales of Thea’s mischievousness, and Léa plays her cassette recorder, spinning Zorba the Greek while the family dances with mismatched dishes of wine.
The diary entries could reveal her grandfather's wartime experiences and a lost love, adding depth to his character. The locket's inscription adds a personal touch, connecting Léa to the past. She decides to investigate further, maybe by visiting a nearby forest where her grandfather used to go, discovering a hidden stone with a name that matches the diary.
