Synopses

The Book of Fire

In a small Greek village set deep within an ancient forest, Irini and Tasso live with their daughter, Chara. Their world is shattered when a forest fire sweeps through, consuming the village and leaving homes burned and lives permanently altered. The story asks what comes after the flames have passed.

The Beekeeper of Aleppo

Nuri is a beekeeper and his wife, Afra, is an artist. They live in the Syrian city of Aleppo, surrounded by family and friends, until war destroys everything they care for. Forced to escape, they must leave behind the life they knew.

Songbirds

Nisha has travelled far to secure a future for her child, spending her days caring for someone else’s daughter while her own waits for her return. Petra employs a domestic worker to keep her household running, and although their lives differ, both are bound by love for their daughters.

When Nisha disappears, few take notice, except Petra and Yiannis, Nisha’s secret lover and the only link to her child in Sri Lanka.
