Nikos Pomonis

Penniless at the end of another tourist season, Panos and Jimmy grasp the chance for an easy buck aboard Captain Nico’s tired sailboat. As she navigates the east Aegean in search of sunken treasure, their secret aspirations quickly unravel. Suspicion, greed and the brutality of Greece’s sea border will force a change of course for this motley crew.

Ricky rides her motorcycle among real and imagined dangers, to arrive unscathed, but unalterably changed, at the end of summer. The unrelenting wind of the season disrupts a landscape of inaction, theft and drug use. The end of innocence has already begun and a new path, dark and hopeful, stands waiting like the ships beyond her window. It will be an act of violence that thrusts the girl into womanhood and leads her to a new life where, not without pain, everything is possible.
