The Divided Island was made by two Enfield filmmakers with backgrounds on opposite sides of the conflict
Cineworld in Southbury Road
A film made by Cypriots from Enfield about the ongoing divide in the country is set to be screened in the borough.
The Divided Island aims to bring an “unbiased, shared understanding of a complex issue” and foster a narrative “towards a future peaceful solution to the Cyprus problem”.
It is directed by Turkish Cypriot Cey Sesiguzel and co-produced by Greek Cypriot Andreas Tokkallos, of Two Fresh Productions, who both grew up in Enfield.
The premiere of The Divided Island was recently held at ArtHouse Cinema in Crouch End, and now Cineworld in Southbury will be hosting a screening at 7.30pm on Monday, 4th November.
Cey and Andreas say that the film “brings the ‘Cyprus problem’ back into focus, revealing untold stories and unravelling the intricate history that still reverberates today”.
