Giorgos Evagorou

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.

Daphne (Marina Vronti) and Louis (Marios Dimitriou) are a modern Cypriot couple in their mid-40s who struggle, with humor and love, to survive the chaos of everyday life. Work, children, bills, technology, forgotten promises, small misunderstandings that become big, and big issues that are easier to solve than they thought. Each 12-minute episode is a short story from their home: wars over the washing machine, disagreements about their child, quick fixes that cause more problems, comments on current events as discussed by couples. Their home is a microcosm of Cyprus today, with laughter, witty remarks, minor crises, and tenderness.
