A Summer on Crete

Filip and Marina are a young Macedonian couple who decide to spend their summer vacation on the island of Crete, staying with close relatives of Marina in the town of Chania. The arrangement with Elena, Marina’s aunt, is for her to welcome them at the bus station in Chania, after their arrival from the Chania Airport. While waiting there, Filip and Marina get into a heated argument, after which Filip goes in the station and leaves Marina alone for a while.

When he comes back, Marina is nowhere to be found. Even worse, her aunt also does not show up to pick them up and Filip does not have her contact. Having no other option, Filip starts looking for Marina, and the day that follows threatens to change his life forever.
