SMALL CRIME

(ΜΙΚΡO ΕΓΚΛΗΜΑ)

Dir. Christos Georgiou

Greek language with English subtitles
Greece/Cyprus/2008/85mins/35mm
Written by Christos Georgiou
Produced by Christos Georgiou & Thanassis Karathanos

The intricacies and eccentricities of a small village are vividly expressed in this exquisite drama about a young police officer begrudgingly assigned to an island in the Aegean.

Leonidas believes he should be in the big city solving important crimes, rather than putting up ‘no nudism’ signs and watching the island’s favourite daughter, Angeliki, appear daily on her own morning TV show. But when someone is found dead, Leonidas suspects foul-play rather than a drunken tumble. His investigations lead directly to Angeliki and he finds himself falling under her spell. It appears everyone here has their own version of the truth.

"Unfolding in a beautiful, remote location that practically becomes a character in itself, this appealing second feature from Christos Georgiou humorously captures the mentality of a small island community."
