Summary |
Small crime is set on a beautiful but ragged Greek island in the Aegean.
Our protagonist Leonidas is a frustrated young policeman who has just been assigned here after his graduation from Police Academy and would much rather be in a hassling city than stuck on a sleepy island.
He finds hope for action in the discovery of Zacharias body.
Each person he talks to on the island has their own version to tell of how Zacharias died and through his unorthodox investigation Leonidas will get to know them all, fall in love, become part of the island them and in the end because of this solve the mystery of Zacharias death.
The director about his film
A Greek island, unique, beautiful and rugged.
It’s characters, individuals, very human, and a little crazy.
In this world comes Leonidas an outsider who would much rather be in the hassling city instead.
With him we get to know the island and it’s people.
First we see only the surface, the sleepy island, but once we get to know the people through the funny and earnest young policeman, and we soak up the beautiful landscape we become, like Leonidas, part of the island.
The events of the film change Leonidas’ plans, just like on rare occasions you fall in love with the place so much that you change your return ticket, and stay a little longer, and a little longer… |
