CLOUDY SUNDAY

Against the backdrop of a German-occupied Thessaloniki during the tumultuous 1943, the forbidden love between two hopeless dreamers, Yorgos, a rebellious Christian carpenter, and Estrea, a strong-willed Jewish girl, finds refuge in a small but busy tavern: the town’s historic “Ouzeri Tsitsanis”. There, under the Nazis’ heavy thumb, the monumental and prolific composer, Vassilis Tsitsanis, is inspired to write some of his most memorable songs, including the haunting and heartbreaking “Cloudy Sunday”. 

Sexual references or acts of romance, Common bad language or slang terms, Brief violence without blood, No drug use or references, No Nudity, English Audio, Comedy.

Kristos, the Last Child

KRISTOS THE LAST CHILD

Of the thirty-one inhabitants of Arki, a windswept island in Greece’s Dodecanese, Kristos is the last remaining child. He is ten, and he is the only pupil of his teacher Maria, who devotes herself to him. Kristos will begin his final year of elementary school soon. To finish compulsory education, he needs to leave Arki and move to a larger island. However, his family cannot afford this expense and his father has different plans for him. He wants to teach him to become a shepherd, a profession passed down the family for generations.
