…AND THE TRAIN GOES TO THE SKY
…KAI TO TRENO PAI STON OURANO




Cyprus-Greece-Bulgaria-Georgia, 2001, 94 min, color


Georgia, the Soviet Union, 1937. Two boys, a Greek and a Georgian, meet and become friends. From their carefree, everyday routine and the calm, humorous life of the small neighborhood, emerges the tragedy of the period: the persecution of the Greeks, who were exiled and imprisoned. The film takes us back in time, as we follow these two young souls in seeking their own answer to the present-day question "What is homeland?"

    YANNIS IOANNOU





Born in Nicosia, Cyprus. He studied at the State Film Institute (VGIK) in Moscow, from where he graduated in 1984. He has directed a number of documentaries for television.
