The comedy of Soteris Christou Small White Envelopes, which won the Award for Best Cypriot Director at the Cyprus Film Days Festival 2019, is shown at the Summer Cinema of the Rialto Theatre.

The Story: Mishellis, a small-time crook in his late thirties, is in an urgent need of money to repay his gambling debts. After a failed wedding robbery attempt he tries a more indirect approach where he impersonates a wedding planner in order to steal the money-stuffed envelopes brought as gifts to the wedding of an upper class family. In the process, he ends up a bit closer to his clients than he originally planned.
