Daniel and Luke Mancuso are brothers who live in Melbourne’s northern suburbs. In 2010, after 23 years of marriage their parents separated.
What followed was a campaign of intimidation and coercion by their father Paulino towards their mother Teresa. Hang up calls. Stalking. Threats. Rumors… Three years later, Daniel and Luke’s beloved mum was murdered at home by their father.
These two remarkable young men have since moved back into what was once their family door and reconnected with their Greek neighbor Nina. Nina, or YiaYia, as she is known to Luke and Daniel, insists the boys are two skinny and over the past eight years she’s been passing home cooked meals to them over the fence. That relationship is now documented in a heart warming instagram and has since spawned a cookbook.
