The film follows a typical Greek family where each member becomes unbalanced or drives the others mad. The father stays stoic and permissive, the mother, in a mid‑life crisis, exploits his weakness. Their older brother, a psychologist, believes he controls everything, while the younger brother drifts, proudly calling himself a filmmaker.
