While having a day-long swim at Athens’ stunning queer beach, best friends Demos and Nikitas recall events of a recent summer in the prospect of turning them into a screenplay for Nikitas’ feature debut. Struggling to transform real events into a hero’s journey, the two experience ups and downs in their relationship that challenge their ability to finish the screenplay and remain friends. THE SUMMER OF CARMEN had its world premiere at the prestigious Venice Film Festival and went on to win multiple awards at Greece’s premiere film festival at Thessaloniki. This is a perfect summer beach comedy, complete with an irresistible dog.
