The Franco-German cultural broadcaster ARTE has released a 30-minute documentary spotlighting Pyla, the only village where Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots live side by side within the United Nations buffer zone in Cyprus.

The film offers a rare look at daily life in this shared yet divided community, where residents maintain separate schools, places of worship, and two mayors—one for each ethnic group—while coexisting under the watch of UN peacekeepers.

ARTE, widely respected for its multilingual cultural programming, makes the documentary freely available on arte.tv as part of its mission to foster cross-border understanding and European storytelling.
