Set adrift on a lost ship in the Mediterranean, Here Add Movies Name is an ambitious historical musical that explores faith, fear, and forbidden connection at a moment of deep cultural fracture. Pirates and Christians are forced into uneasy coexistence as the sea becomes both their prison and their confessional. Through music, drama, and romance, the film confronts intolerance between East and West, revealing how belief can divide—and sometimes unite—those caught between survival and conviction.

Running parallel to this seafaring tale is a quieter, intimate story on land: a Filipino domestic worker caring for an elderly couple in a Cypriot village slowly uncovers buried tensions and long-silenced histories. Trapped between duty and emotional closeness, she becomes a witness to generational trauma and unspoken truths. Drawing inspiration from real historical events, including Mediterranean piracy in the 1600s and Spain’s expulsion of over 300,000 Moriscos in 1609, the film weaves personal stories into a sweeping meditation on exile, identity, and humanity.
