I loved this soulful film, set on the beautiful island of Cyprus. It's difficult to write a film that is predominantly dialogue between two characters, but the film is so well written, with such insightful and clever banter between the two quirky leads, that it is an absolute pleasure to watch. I couldn't wait to see how their relationship evolved and how they developed throughout their road trip through the vast landscapes that Cyprus has to offer. The two leads played off each other brilliantly, and I look forward to seeing more from both of them. An amazing film, shot on a tiny budget, but with huge heart! It reminded me that life and love is complicated, but worth the chase!
But don't let them turn you off the movie.
The movie is not brilliant but it is a pretty touching story with a few twists .
7.2.

Was curious to watch the finished film, came away impressed. The script carried the story well, while the cinematography made me fall in love with Cyprus all over again. Made me realise how much undiscovered Cyprus there is out there. Considering the small cast, my attention was kept from scene to scene. I left the cinema thinking how movies with such charm and simple beauty are rare to find amongst todays franchises. Each actor brought their own spark to the screen. Loved the soundtrack which i wouldn't mind buying, the theme tune is still in my head and i still sing it randomly. Overall, a must see! Looking forward to more films by this young director.
As The Raven, I collect the pretty-girls movies, and have had a lot to say about them after belatedly joining IMDb back in 2014. I was searching for the Heather Graham movie Committed and my computer wizard associate found the wrong one. Fortunately I am a stickler, a double-checker, so this aw, Greek-looking thing, I quickscanned through to about six minutes or so in. Yeah, there's at least a girl in this. And, yeah, she's quite pretty. So I kept it. Didn't expect anything much, though. For clearly, this is something small.
Yes, this is something small. But I've seen big movies that are just a slap in the face. Why do I even keep this? There is so much that I don't like.
I am currently pleasantly surprised. I am watching a total jewel. Like a small diamond that is really worth much much more than several Hollywood movies pooled together. And that's not even mentioning the weak stuff being regurgitated nowadays.
I stopped halfway to make this glorious experience last longer.
Few people know about this. That's evident because the contributions to this page were basically nonexistent before I came along today. Do you know what you are missing, all you incurable romantics out there? The all-time Valentine's Day movie!
The Raven heartily recommends this. Only to incurable romantics, of course. If you're not into that, you'd be bored out of your skull. But I applaud everybody involved with this movie. I could find nothing to criticise in the first 50+ minutes, and believe you me, I'm quick to notice where even great movies, immensely popular with me, have their flaws.
This is beautiful beautiful beautiful!

When I settled in to watch this small movie from Cyprus, I wasn't expecting to see something that would impress and move me so much. The images were beautiful with world-class photography and while I was convinced this would be a cliché romantic comedy, the ending completely surprised me. The storyline was so original, in fact I don't think I've ever seen something similar and the locations were fresh and new as we haven't really seen the island of Cyprus on this scale before. I also loved the leading actors - Orestes Sophocleous who I know from his amazing theater background and the mesmerizing Melia Kreiling. I found I could really relate to what they were going through...this movie is great for anyone who has ever been in love or ever questioned it.

- TriviaTo all the incurable romantics out there wishing to emulate this, it should be pointed out that a long bridal veil doesn't go well with a convertible car. There is always the risk that the veil could get swept into the chassis of the vehicle. The wearer could get strangled, her neck snapped. Similar has in fact occurred, whether with long scarves on any form of open carriage, or as depicted in this movie. So be mindful of this.
