Sous le ciel d'Alice (Skies of Lebanon) in Semaine de la Critique Cannes 2020

Sous le ciel d'Alice (Skies of Lebanon) in Semaine de la Critique Cannes 2020

Chloé Mazlo's debut feature film "Sous le ciel d'Alice" (Skies of Lebanon) has been selected for Semaine de la Critique Cannes 2020. The film was partly shot on location in Cyprus in collaboration with AMP Filmworks.

In the fifties, young Alice leaves her natal Swiss mountains for the sunny and vibrant shores of Beirut. She falls madly in love with Joseph, a quirky astrophysicist intent on sending the first Lebanese national into space. Alice quickly fits in among his relatives, but after years of bliss, the civil war threatens their Garden of Eden.

Cyprus Film Market Analysis

The Cyprus Ministry of Education, Culture, Sport and Youth (MECSY) made great efforts in 2019 to expand the country’s activities in various aspects concerning cinema, including film production, film education and film festivals.

The first international film exclusively shot in Cyprus using the 35% film incentive scheme, which was launched in 2018, was Jiu Jitsu directed by Dimitris Logothetis and starring Nicolas Cage. The film successfully completed shooting on the island in August 2019.

Patchwork, a fiction film directed by Petros Charalambous and Janine Teerling and produced by Cypriot AMP Filmworks in coproduction with Boo productions from Greece and Transfax Film Productions from Israel also completed shooting in Cyprus in 2019.

Variety: “Cyprus Joins the Battle for Foreign Filmmakers”

“Cyprus offers a cash rebate or tax credit of up to 35% on qualifying local spending for feature films, TV series, animation, documentaries and other projects that promote Cyprus and its culture, provided they meet certain financial criteria and pass a cultural test."
