Deni is Bulgarian and Sofija is Macedonian. Two women in competition on stage. Two women measure the similarities and differences between the two nations and create their map of the Balkans with a lot of humour, music, self-irony and personal stories.

Political disputes between two countries seen through the eyes of two women and their thoughts, dreams, problems, experiences and fantasies.

Do commonalities divide us more than unite us? Is it really the past that is important for countries and the future for women?

"Our friendship between nations is not lost, it's only the kebabs that are the problem." /from "Aivar or Lutenitsa"/
