Caught between the mob and border patrol, washed-up musician Yiannis must put his plans to leave Cyprus on hold when his beloved dog escapes across the wall to the island's Turkish side.

Set in Cyprus is the 1950s. It is the story of a poor man who dreams of owning a violin and becoming a fiddler. But life and love get in the way and force him to make a choice between his passion and his responsibilities.

Africa Star follows three generations of Cypriot women - mother, daughter, and granddaughter - whose lives were tragically altered by one man's submission to temptation. Plagued by guilt over his act in 1945 and his failure to make amends in 1967, the now-ailing octogenarian makes one last attempt in 2008.

The local cinema in the village of Panayia that once used to be the vibrant centre of the village, has been closed for more than 30 years. This documentary follows the journey of two retired local men, and life-long friends, trying to reopen the cinema, in the hope of bringing people back to the village centre and reliving the good old times of their youth.
