- In 1974, a group of 11-year-old boys spend the last carefree summer of their childhood, unaware that the world of grown-ups, with its loves, passions, prejudices and curses, is about to seal their fate. Aaron, Stelios, Sakis, Galanos and Verios, "the acrobats", are best friends. School has closed for the summer holidays and the children spend their time playing games, running errands, and riding their bikes. Life is a game, into which they channel all their physical energy and imagination. They practice their diving abilities in a big cistern. It is a game through which their special talents and competitive spirit unfold. One is good at balancing acts, another at diving and another at somersaults. It is in this neighborhood that Aaron will spend the most important summer of his life: a rite of passage from childhood to adolescence, a time for learning about love, jealousy and friendship.—troye
- 1974, Eleusis, Greece. School's out for summer, and a close-knit team of best friends and intrepid eleven-year-olds, The Garden Acrobats, while away the time being boys, learning and practising new skills. Against the backdrop of their innocent, sun-kissed summer vacation, a fiery curse, and a deep, refreshing, concrete block cistern, the loyal companions let their imagination run wild and engage in increasingly dangerous challenges as a rite of passage from childhood to adult life. But destiny binds us all. Do the promises of the grown-ups hold any value?—Nick Riganas
