The story

In Chicago, 30-year-old Fotoula "Toula" Portokalos is a member of a large, loud, overbearing Greek family.

One day, Toula finds herself attracted to Ian Miller, a high school teacher who is meeting a friend at Dancing Zorba's.

After seeing a flyer for a class about computers and tourism, she suggests to her aunt Voula that she could take the class and apply what she learns to help Voula's travel agency.
