In this hilarious Greek classic, Aliki, the precocious daughter of the Hellenic Naval Academy commander, and Kostas, a fourth-year naval cadet, are clearly meant for each other. When forces threaten to stand between them, Aliki commits a bold act of love, and the Naval Academy gains an uninvited and highly unlikely new recruit! Is a warship the ideal place for a clandestine romance? For Aliki and Kostas, the risk is worth taking.
* Screenings begin shortly after sundown – 8.30PM approx.
