Famagusta

Great series based on true events and how the island was divided by an invasion and the aftermath that still haunt the people that are waiting for redemption and reunification free from foreign policies and live peacefully according to UN resolutions at their homeland and securing a safe and prosperous future for their children. This real life drama will touch all hearts and make you cry as it depicts war, family ties, injustice, redemption, love, honour, faith, pride, strength, memories and more. Great performance from all actors revealing deep rooted drama based on true events and characters.

Voting/History issues:

1. The truth hurts, and although it is just a TV series ...the Turk trolls are hard at work to downvote it.

2. In 1974 the simple truth is Turkey invaded Cyprus and occupied roughly 30% of the island. There was no peace operation and the story is just as simple... repeating itself throughout the centuries. The big bad neighborhood bully doing what he does best.. attack when the little guy is down.

3. Turkey has traditionally caused problems for it's neighboring countries, and 'wishes' to reinstate the Ottoman Empire... Get a grip already.. It's down and and it ain't coming back up...

Series Review: It describes, only superficially at times, the ongoing problem with dead/missing relatives as a fallout of the Turkish invasion in 1974. It depicts pain and suffering but sometimes not so well... Directing and acting are sufficient but maybe I'm used to Hollywood productions and I'm too critical.

The truth events on what happened to Cyprus in 1974 with the illegal and violent turkish invasion.

History canl not change and if u visit Cyprus you will see that whole Cyprus was and is greek.

With the illegal invasion half a century ago, and the misleading turkish tourist agents or those agents who are funded and promoted to miseducate tourists and visitors.

Unfortunately many of the visitors dont care about history at all but at least some programs must show the truth out of it and never stop fighting against the wrong and misleading works of the turkish propaganda. So watch to get an idea, even without the vandalism of the churches.

For all the Turks that are saying that it's biased etc, they have not watched it since it is banned in their country and Ertogan is doing propaganda. It is a very nice series that shows FACTS and how the Turkish INVASION took place in Cyprus. Cyprus is still occupied after 50 years and this shows how they are still aggressive and believe that they were correct by invading an island. Famagusta shows facts on how the invasion happened and the cruelty of the Turkish soldiers during the invasion. It shows the assaults that took place, the killings, the properties that were damaged and how they still occupy our island.

A must watch series for people around the world but Greeks, Greek Cypriots , even Turkish Cypriots.. A reminder of what happened in Cyprus in 1974 and how people's lives are affected by this war even today 50 years later...Tourists floating in Cyprus today enjoy the Famagusta area (both occupied and free) but little do they know how much blood and pain this island suffered and this pain is still existing in most Cypriot families. This inside pain felt by so many and their dream to return to their houses who they fled thinking that they will return and never returned is what is portrait in this great series and a big bravo to the PRODUCERS and NETFLIX who had the guts to produce it and remind us all NOT TO FORGET!! A MUST WATCH.
