Actor Christos Sterioglou, who plays in the film, also says he is very pleasantly surprised by the news. In an interview for Associated Press, he states that the film shows how far stupidity could get when you want to put everything under control even when you are doing so because you love someone and want to protect this person.

Briefly, the film tells the story of a family. The father closes his three children in a house with a backyard and they never go out. The children in the film mature their teens and the father speaks lies all his life, keeping them isolated from the world, in an unreal world. "My house is my whole world for me," say the three children who do not react as normal persons. They live a wealthy, but totally isolated life in the house, entirely controlled by their father and mother. For some unknown reasons the children are under the thumb of their parents who want to protect them. The only person from the outside world is Christina who is brought by the father to satisfy the sexual desires of his son. But the presence of this "intruder" threatens to cause radical changes in this phenomenally stable and controlled world at home.
