Synopsis

The 85-minute-long drama is director Petros Charalambous’ first feature film and is based on the novel The Land of the Golden Apple by Eve Makis. Set in the 1980’s, the coming-of-age film has as its main character 12-year-old Socrates, who finds himself involved in a murder investigation. While he looks for clues to solve the murder, he discovers that some people close to him may be involved in the crime, making him question his own identity.


In a seemingly idyllic Cyprus village, Socrates leads a life of unalloyed pleasure with his cousin and best friend Marcos - setting off homemade fireworks, tormenting local pensioners, hurtling through the village on their bicycles and defying the hapless local authorities. However, a shadow is cast over Socrates' life when he discovers that Marcos and his family are being abused by their violent father, Hambo, a gambler and a loan shark. As Socrates resolves to get to the truth before the police, he uncovers evidence that links those he loves to the crime and makes him question his own identity. Under the gloss of his idyllic surroundings lurks a dark family secret ready to turn his carefree life upside down. We follow Socrates on a thrilling and perilous journey of self-discovery as he learns the meaning of love, family loyalty and courage.
