Alex & Eve
Written by Alex Lykos
Directed by Michael Block

Alex & Eve is about a male version of Bridget Jones, whose parents continually pressure him to marry—and she’d better be a good Greek-Orthodox girl!

During the Euro 2004 Soccer Tournament, where Greece enjoys a fairytale run, Alex meets Eve, a Lebanese-Muslim woman. Despite the insecurities of both, sparks fly. However, Eve’s parents have reached breaking point and step up the pressure on Eve to marry—and he’d better be a good Lebanese-Muslim man!

At a time when Greek pride and patriotism are increasing with every Greek victory, Alex and Eve must decide on what will win out: the power of national pride, religion and cultural tradition, or the power of love?
