Plot

Dionisis, a widower, and Eleni, a divorcée, get married, the former with three sons and the latter with two daughters from their previous marriages. The cohabitation starts to become difficult because the teenage children fell in love with each other. But, the love between them is impossible because they are formally relatives, a fact which creates hectic situations in the family. Among the main roles are also the Kotsabasis family, the friends of Dionisis and Eleni, Spyros, Dionisis' brother, Ifigeneia, Eleni's mother and Dionisis' mother-in-law, Fotis, the waiter at Dionisis' and Spyros' beer house, and the childrens' schoolmates.
