In this film, Tsemberopoulos deals with the small “insignificant” dramas that are played out every day in contemporary Athenian apartment buildings that never hit the front pages of the dailies or the evening news. Christos, who is 22, wants to hit the big time, become famous, and make money. But it is Michalis, Marina's husband and Fanny's father, who has the money. Marina is a woman who sacrifices herself for her husband and kids. Fanny, 18, a would-be swimming champ, is already in love with him. Then there is Roula, his hot-blooded girlfriend who loves him. The protagonist in Tsemberopoulos' film is our next-door neighbor, the lady in the apartment building across the street, the kid who rented the semi-basement studio.

A firm believer in the idea that a collection needs to be upheld at least by four generations and comparing this continuity to a relay race, Nahit Kabakcı began creating the Huma Kabakcı Collection from the 1980s onwards. Today, the collection can be considered one of the most important and outstanding examples among the rare, consciously created, and long-lasting ones of its kind in Turkey.
