The urban noise of a clogged city is the natural habitat of kebab-eaters, the usual visitors of a bar ran by an old married couple. The gaze of the customers and the older lady switches between the plates and another talent-show, where their own dreams get projected on the contestants. The owners’ mundane life changes when the wife decides to perform in one of her beloved TV shows and present her very own kebab sculptures. The beautifully animated “Gyros Dance” portrays the mindset of the middle class, their dreams and prose of life splashed with color by the seductively glamorous TV broadcasts.
