The Corridor is the story of two old sisters who have totally opposite characters and had to live together. They are carried to loneliness; they can socialize neither to each other nor to anyone else. They fall into despair and wicked behaviors but never hurt anyone else but themselves and each other. This is an ironic drama where their effort to settle accounts with life, past, mother, father, family, hopes, expectations have never and will never end.
