The sisters, who live in the district of Of in Trabzon, can communicate with very few people. They do not know sign language, but they try to express their problems with hand gestures and facial expressions. The siblings, who were born deaf and mute, live in introverts in a neglected home. They earn their living from their paternal pension and a small tea garden of their own. The only friends of these old women are the cows in their barns and the cats they keep in their homes. They obtain the materials they need through their neighbors and the neighborhood headman. The sisters, who take care of the crops they plant in their gardens, are fed naturally. Hand in hand, they do the housework. Hasibe Kutru, who does not fail to show respect to her 70-year-old elder sister Fatma Kutru, who is one year older than her, receives an equal response from her sister. Women who always act together cut their wood together and set their tables together. The deep lines on their faces and hands are an indication that their life is full of difficulties. The two brothers, who stand tall despite being women, continue to challenge life despite their age.
