Amidst the ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza, the world has largely forgotten the frozen divide that has left Nicosia as Europe’s last divided capital. As a result of the conflict in 1974, the North remains largely inhabited by Turkish Cypriots and Greek Cypriots in the South. After 50 years of failed negotiations the issue remains today on whether the Island will ever become reunited.

The Divided Island challenges the often hostile narratives perpetuated by mainstream media, instead pursuing truth through deeply personal interviews from those whose lives, homes, and country were torn apart, and the new generation of Cypriots yearning for peaceful reconciliation.
