The Story

KAYIKÇI

A mysterius, handsome man is enchanted by a coy mermaid. She sings to his heart a Rebetiko with the words of alanguage unknown to both.

Their love is frustrated by mutual prejudices. The young woman from Chios and the deaf and mute "Kayikci" from Cesme, the two so close yet so distant coasts of the Aegean... Against the tragi-comic turbulence around, will the sea inbetween become a shelter for the two lovers...
Will they ever be together?

"With their lives, hopes and dreams, Aegean people are so similar to each other. But we have come to a critical point where the balance between "neighbour" and "enemy" is highly volatile. I believe that love is a healing power of humanity. Are we capableenough to experience it?"

Biket Ilhan.
