Story
EIVISSA tells the story of the straight banker Isabelle, who after receiving an unexpected inheritance, leaves her daily grind in Hamburg and travels to Ibiza (Catalan: Eivissa).
Suddenly transplanted into a new and foreign world, she slowly embraces the change of scenery and embarks upon an eye-opening, transformative journey.
The film also explores the stories of Pat and Anuva, two women whose paths continually cross with Isabelle’s during her time on the white island.
EIVISSA is about life’s unexpected twists and turns and the magic which happens when you simply let go, specially on Ibiza. In parallel the film paints a vivid portrait of the island and its many colorful characters.

Director
The heart and soul of the film comes from director, Hamburg (Germany) native Tini Lazar.
She is a life long lover of cinema in all its forms, starting her career behind the camera, evolving to acting roles, directing and producing.
In the male dominated film industry, she repeatedly longs for a realistic and modern female perspective in characters and plotlines. Inspired by this, she shoots her first independent film EIVISSA.
Working closely with main actress, Lenka Arnold, who has her roots on Ibiza, Lazar herself also goes on an adventure to complete this project, as the film is completely self produced and directed, realised with a small self-financed budget.
She and her team are currently developing a series, a follow up for the film and its characters.
