Fiction
Smaragda, a middle-aged single woman, moves into her late mother's house in Ayia Napa, a tourist town in Cyprus, while she takes on the care of Bella, her mother's guide dog. With environmental sensitivities, ineffectual relationships, single and professionally stagnant, she contemplates her legacy. As a former children's TV show host yearning to return to the industry and facing rejection, she explores social media, encountering both fame and backlash. Financially
strained, she takes a job as a kids' entertainer at a tourist resort, a far cry from her previous aspirations. Despite the challenges and fears she faces, Smaragda realizes that, with the support of her friends and her own resilience, she can handle whatever life throws at her.
