AFRICA STAR
Over the course of three generations, the lives of three Cypriot women are affected by the act of a man who succumbs to a temptation.
Africa Star follows three generations of Cypriot women- mother, daughter, and granddaughter- whose lives were tragically altered by one man’s submission to temptation. Plagued by guilt over his act in 1945 and his failure to make amends in 1967, the now ailing octogenarian makes one last attempt in 2008.
