This film unravels for the first time the treason that led to the capture of hundreds of Cypriots and Greeks, during the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974. Cold blood executions, abuse, psychological violence, deprivation, hardship ... The shooting of this film was carried out in blood-stained places, where battles were fought against the Turkish invaders, where massive cold blood executions were carried out, as well as in detention centers in the occupied part of Cyprus. The testimonials of those who were held captives by the Turkish invaders, raw and without any alterations make up the mosaic of the events that followed that painful period.
