Demetrios, a timid and kindhearted pottery painter, lives in ancient Greece and dislikes sports and competition. One day his village is challenged by the mayor of a neighboring town to save his village, Demetrios panics and hides inside a large clay pot, only to be struck by lightning. He is transported to Tokyo in 1964, which is hosting the 1964 Summer Olympics. There, he is taken in by a modern Japanese family who assume he is a harmless foreigner, allowing him to observe contemporary society and athletic events firsthand. Each time Demetrios is struck by lightning, he travels back and forth between ancient Greece and modern Japan, bringing with him ideas inspired by modern sports. Applying this knowledge to his own era, he gradually gains confidence, earns the respect of his fellow villagers, and helps introduce new forms of competition.
