ugly Tula works as a waiter in a Greek restaurant run by her father. At the age of 30, she doesn't pay attention to her lifelong affairs. She wants to break the shackles of the family, eager for new knowledge and change her destiny.
With the help of his mother and aunt, Tula got his wish and entered the university for further studies. She took off her glasses, put on makeup, took off her old clothes, and dressed herself carefully.
Like a rebirth, Tula began to work in her aunt's travel agency, where she and Ian fell in love at first sight, and both fell in love.
When they first dated, Tula told Ian that during Christmas, her father and uncle would fight to eat the goat’s brain, and the aunt would chase her all over the room with the goat’s eyes in it, and she had to swallow the goat’s eyes. , Because you will become smarter if you eat it. There are also 27 cousins in the house.
The love affair between Tula and Ian is soaring all the way, but Tula's father strongly opposes it, simply because Ian is not Greek.
The three missions of a Greek woman in her life: marry a Greek boy, give birth to a Greek child, and feed everyone.
Ian worked hard to comply with the request made by Tula's father, accept the baptism of the Greek Orthodox Church, and become a Greek.
Tula’s father ignored Ian’s greetings and deliberately said in Greek that when our ancestors were studying philosophy, you were still wandering in the forest.
Tula’s younger brother likes to tell Ian sneer, such as, if you dare to treat my sister badly, I’ll kill you. Haha, look at your blush. Do you know what will happen if I have a gun in my hand?
Tula asked Ian's parents to have a light meal, but her mother invited all her relatives. Dozens of people grilled lamb on the lawn of the Tula’s yard, drank fragrant wine in the living room, and danced traditional Greek dances. The scene was very lively.
Tula's father brought the roast lamb to Ian's parents to taste it, but was refused. Tula's father couldn't understand that some people didn't eat meat, but he immediately comforted and said: It doesn't matter, we also stewed lamb.
Poor Ian's parents were like entering a savage tribe, spending the dinner tremblingly.
Tula’s father later complained to Tula’s mother about Ian’s parents: they were dry, like no honey or cheese.
On the day of the wedding, Tula had an acne on the corner of her mouth. Dad and aunt said that they would be fine with a spray of detergent.
The mother said to her daughter who was about to marry: Greek women, go into the kitchen as meek as a lamb, and go into the bedroom like a tiger to eat.
At the wedding banquet, Ian's parents have been integrated into this big family, singing and dancing with these passionate Greeks.
A few interesting and philosophical lines in the film:
Give me a word, any word, I can tell you its Greek origin.
There are only two kinds of people in the world, Greeks, and those who want to be Greeks.
A man is the head of a family, but a woman is the neck. You have to turn your head wherever you want it to turn.
The big family of Tula is really amazing. It turns out that big families are not only found in China. It turns out that the Greeks speak so humorously and philosophically.
