cyprus
Directed by: Gianna Amerikanou

Young Dimitris, on the verge of manhood but in many ways still a child, has always romanticized his absent father. When his father is released from prison, Dimitris’s dream of happiness is more intense than ever, but the reality of the reunion will turn out to be much different. When the two reunite, their relationship is anything but healthy. Behind his fatherly ideas about connecting with his son, he also exploits Dimitris by involving him as an ‘apprentice’ in some very dodgy and dubious activities on the Turkish side of Nicosia. Trapped between his failing, suspicious father and his employer’s family who want to adopt him, Dimitris faces a profound and difficult dilemma, especially when his father increases the personal pressure. What will he choose?.
