Suntan

Middle-aged Kostis arrives at a tiny Greek island in mid-winter to take up residence as the local doctor. When summer comes, the island becomes a thriving tourist spot, with bustling nudist beaches and wild parties. Kostis falls for young and frivolous Anna and will do anything to win her heart. His focus in life shifts to parties, booze and hanging out with Anna and her friends. But what begins as a rediscovery of his long-lost youth slowly turns into a dangerous obsession.

The latest film by Argyris Papadimitropoulos (Wasted Youth), one of the most prominent voices in the Greek New Wave, is a bold yet sensitive piece featuring an accurate performance by Makis Papadimitriou (Chevalier).
