French cultural theorist Paul Virilio speaks of our generation as being the generation of ‘accelerated realities’. ‘The acceleration of reality’ is directly related to the acceleration of history.

Film’s main point is: Turkish and Greek Cypriots remember their common cultural values in front of the others. When they meet a sex worker, a transvestite or foreign workers they feel more close to each other.In the absence of the others theyare as scattered pomegranate pieces in the divided Cyprus island.
