The year is 1986, twelve years after Cyprus saw the invasion of the Turks in 1974, displacing hundreds of thousands of Cypriots as they commandeered the North.
Frank and Angela Pistakis were forced to flee their homeland, emigrating to Australia, soon to be followed by their daughter, Mary, her husband, Mateus, and their two sons as political instability rampaged throughout the region. The two young boys, Apollo and Troy, are about to face the
challenges of growing up in a new and foreign country, far, far away.
This is their story, Beyond the Ruins.
Fivos Panayiotou grew up on the outskirts of Melbourne in the 80s in a traditional Greek family. As a first generation born of Australian-Greek heritage hailing from Cyprus, he was raised in the multicultural area of Brunswick and ate meat pies and was a devout fan of Carlton football club
like any normal kid in Melbourne’s eastern suburbs. He has a particular interest in working with the elderly in aged care and is a dedicated uncle, family man and man of God. He is a survivor of domestic violence and strong advocate against psychological abuse and wishes to speak out on
this largely unrecognised aspect of men’s mental health. lth.
