Meet the Chakos family - a lively Greek-Australian household in the Sydney suburb of Sans Souci.. Energetic 60-year-old Despina is at the family’s centre. She runs a weekend plant stall with her sprightly 81-year-old mum Aphrodite and cooks fabulous Greek dishes for the extended family that gathers regularly around her table. Dinner is always an animated affair as four generations share jokes, news and opinions.. Despina lives with husband Steele upstairs in a neat-as-a-pin, two-storey home. Downstairs lives daughter Christina, her partner Aris, their baby boy Andreas, and Christopher and Alex, Christina’s two soccer-mad sons from her first marriage. Christina’s brother Theo, an aspiring actor, lives nearby with his partner Cheryl and their baby girl Dyana.. It’s a big, loud, gregarious family that celebrates life. There’s the fuss and fun of a double christening and a flurry of activity at Easter when all the relatives come over for traditional lamb on a spit. There are challenges too as Christina and Aris announce their marriage plans and Theo struggles to find a job with a future. But they have been through tougher times before. Together they will stay on track.. A Film Australia National Interest Program. Produced in association with SBS Independent. 2011 National Film and Sound Archive of Australia..
