'FIND ME FALLING' FROM CY TO NETFLIX

Find Me Falling, a film produced in Cyprus starring well-known singer and actor Harry Connick Jr and written and directed by Cypriot writer/director Stelana Kliris, has topped the Netflix Weekly Top 10 lists of the most-watched TV and films, in its very first week of streaming, having been viewed 14,400,000 times already, just five days after it was released on 19 July.

Indeed, with 22,500,000 hours viewed, it is way ahead of the second most viewed film on Netflix, Trolls Band Together, which has amassed 15,800,000 hours and 10,300,000 views.

Fine Me Falling is the first film produced in Cyprus to feature on Netflix. Kliris has previously said: “This movie will feel like a vacation,” and also revealed, “Harry Connick Jr. has a few new songs for you… in more than one language.”

According to Netflix’s Tudum site, the plot of the film, which was previously entitled 'The Islander,' is the following: “Coming off a flop album and his biggest hit’s dwindling popularity, aging rock star John Allman decides to take a break from his career to reclaim his spark. He moves to an isolated cliffside home on the idyllic Mediterranean island of Cyprus, but John’s dream of keeping a low profile is derailed when he is routinely confronted by desperate souls and later faced with even more complicated surprises when an old flame reignites.”

“This is a love story about many kinds of love: romantic, family, lifelong dreams, and what you’re willing to sacrifice for the people or the things you love,” Kliris told Tudum. “John essentially has to decide whether the love of his life is his music or the woman he left behind.”
