A Grand Gesture

Short Documentary | UK, Greece | Production

In his 20’s, Tim and a bunch of pals drove to Santorini, built ‘Atlantis Bookshop’ and had the summer of their lives. After all the work, a disagreement occurred between Tim and American pal, Craig, which ostracised Tim from the business. Now in his 40’s, Tim’s received a late autism diagnosis and has begun to look back with a new perspective. He’s heard Atlantis Books needs to move premises and Chris’s mental health is of concern. This is Tim’s opportunity to make a grand gesture, by building the new shop and saving Craig’s life with the gift of a piano.
