‘Two Homelands’ documentary to screen in Melbourne and Perth for the first time

·

After a successful tour of Cyprus, Kay Pavlou’s documentary ‘Two Homelands’ has screened in Darwin and Adelaide and is about to screen in Melbourne and Perth for the first time.

Two Homelands showcases the journey of six elderly Greek Cypriots who reflect on their war-torn homeland and life in Australia.

The screenings are being held to mark the 50th anniversary of the Turkish invasion of Cyprus.

“2024, being the 50th anniversary of the Turkish invasion of Cyprus and division of the island, it’s important to keep the story alive,” Ms Pavlou told The Greek Herald.

“Despite the political stalemate, the desire for reunification is still strong. At the very least, Cypriots are working bi-communally across the island to restore and repair their shared cultural heritage.”

Ms Pavlou said she is looking forward to screening to the largest Cypriot community in Australia in Melbourne. She said Perth has a smaller population, but a very strong sense of community.
