Two women, Nina and Ekavi, narrate their lives in a torrential manner and in the first person: their loves, marriages, separations, losses.

The adaptation of Kostas Tachtsis' iconic novel, in the form of a monologue for a female actress, through comic and tragic stories illuminates the entire modern Greek history: Macedonian Struggles, Balkan Wars, Asia Minor Catastrophe, 4th of August Dictatorship, Greco-Italian War, Occupation, Civil War. A reference point for the post-war literature of the country, Tachtsis' text unfolds before our eyes an endless skein that includes all kinds of situations and incidents - incredible, harsh, tender, humorous - in a struggle for survival and for a better tomorrow, constituting an unparalleled depiction of the psyche of the modern Greek.
