He enlists a mi**atched *and of accompl***s from every side of the Cyprus dispute to find a way to get Jimi *ack, while never le**ing the land he calls home. Writer and director Marios Piperides has *een producing films in Cyprus for more than a decade, and his inside knowledge pays dividends in this narrative feat**e de*ut—a whip-**art comedy on legality, disputed nationality, and the frameworks that are erected to maintain a fragile peace. He demonstrates his compassion for locals on *oth sides of the divide, as he tenderly capt**es their struggle to find hope and make a living in a divided land. Such serious themes pair perfectly with Piperides’s sense of humor As Yiannis’s efforts dip farther into a*s**dity, they offer a send-up of the forces that prolong a conflict that has *een poorly understood and largely forgotten *y the outside world.详情
