A SMALL CRIME (ΜΙΚΡΟ ΕΓΚΛΗΜΑ) at the 2009 AFI European Union Film Showcase
A SMALL CRIME AT THE 2009 AFI EUROPEAN UNION FILM SHOWCASE A selection by A.F.I. of top films from EU member states, including film festival award winners, box office hits and US premieres S UNDAY, NOV. 22 AT 6:00 PM & TUESDAY, NOV. 24 AT 7:00 PMAFI SILVER THEATRE AND CULTURAL CENTER Silver Spring, MD 20910 This charming romantic comedy, shot entirely on the island of Thirassia, near Santorini, by Cyprus-born Christos Georgiou, has delighted audiences at film festivals around the world. Bike cop Leonidas fears he'll go batty assigned to an island village where the closest he comes to law enforcement is telling naked tourists on the beach to put their clothes on. But when the town drunk turns up dead at the bottom of the cliffs, he suddenly has a real case on his hands. And when he's introduced to the beautiful witness Angeliki--the town's local celebrity, who's parlayed a turn on the Greek version of American Idol into a TV gig--romance seems possible, too. DIR/SCR/PROD Christos Georgiou; SCR Srdjan Koljevic; PROD Thanassis Karathanos. Germany/Greece/Cyprus, 2008, color, 85 min. In Greek with English subtitles. NOT RATED .
