Based on a feud that began without any significant cause between the Karakamilos and Pattalossavves families in 1754 and continues to this day, the contemporary reality of Cyprus will be presented through exaggerated comedy. We will see everyday people, our neighbors, but also people who are twice our size, who live in our homes and whom we do not pay much attention to. They are foreigners, "outsiders." They are people who chose Cyprus, to work for a better future. How do we treat them? How do Cypriots today view foreign workers? Amidst all this, a great love and two deaths reignite the feud, which no one knows how or when it will end.
