🎬 Special screening – La Pause

The High Commissioner of Cyprus and the Alliance Française invite you to a special evening screening of the film La Pause.

This compelling film offers an intimate and thought-provoking exploration of contemporary Cypriot society.

📽️ About the film:

In a desperate attempt to escape from the misery of a loveless marriage, Elpida finds refuge in a fantasy world of vindictive violence towards her oppressive husband. When a young painter is employed to paint the building she lives in, she finds herself confronted with her unquenchable desires, her body and the husband she has no love for. Soon fantasy and reality start to blur.Through nuanced storytelling and authentic performances, La Pause invites audiences to reflect on identity, transition, and the quiet yet powerful moments that shape personal and collective journeys. Both culturally rich and emotionally resonant, the film opens a window onto Cyprus through a sensitive and cinematic lens.
