Description
When the willful Iris learns that her estranged father Aris has returned to the island she lives on, she is desperate to finally get to know him. But Aris, back only for his own father’s funeral, doesn’t seem interested. That changes when he realises what a valuable accomplice his seemingly adorable daughter can be in his criminal schemes. Hold Onto Me is a richly sensory film that conjures the taste of summer in every frame, and it has already picked up the audience award at Sundance earlier this year.
