A Sea Apart (2003)
Eleni left Karpathos at the age of 17. Twenty years later, she lives in Los Angeles with her husband and children. Taking care of her children and the family's Greek restaurant are her daily activities. But an unexpected event turns everything upside down. Eleni's teenage love, Aris, comes from the island to America to find her. Suddenly, what she once longed for now becomes a source of pain. Eleni is called upon to make a very difficult decision. Will she leave everything she has, her life, her children, her husband, to follow her dream, or will she choose to stay with what now clearly seems like a dull and lonely life?
