In a mostly quiet Greek suburban neighbourhood, its residents prepare for the relentless summer heat. Each person harbours a secret, a desire, a passion, or a blind spot, whether toward themselves or others. In this small, quaint place, lives intertwine, and the truths of their neighbours gradually come to light. The narrator, an impartial observer, captures this world - a mix of familiarity, nostalgia, and a dark, unforgiving edge. This anthology series delves into the lives of five residents. From a father who finds twisted satisfaction in cutting down a tree that reminds him of his late wife, to a general obsessed with earning his final military medal, each tale unveils the bitter ironies and hidden tensions beneath the seemingly serene surface of suburban life.
