Each protagonist, who lives in 7 Doors, is guilty of committing one of the seven deadly sins. Apart from the theme of the seven deadly sins and common location, the films are linked by following the Maltese ritual whereby a statue of the Holy Mary is passed on from household to household, week after week. Each time the statue enters a particular home it will follow the story of those characters. Characters from different films will cross each other's paths, so while someone could be a leading protagonist in one story, the same person is a secondary character in someone else’s story.
