Pause (Greek: Παύση, romanized: Pafsi) is a 2018 Cypriot drama film directed by Tonia Mishiali, who co-wrote the screenplay with Anna Fotiadou.

It stars Stella Fyrogeni, Andreas Vasileiou, and Popi Avraam.

Upon reaching menopause, a Cypriot housewife's decision to no longer tolerate her husband's abuse and disrespect leads her into a world of violent and disturbing daydreams, though reality and fantasy soon begin to blur.

[2][3][4] Pause premiered at the 2018 Karlovy Vary International Film Festival as part of the "East of the West" programme.

[5] The Hollywood Reporter called it "a work of considerable tonal complexity, as it stirs moments of pitch-black humor and short and violent reveries into an otherwise austerely told tale of spousal strife that wants to smash the patriarchy with feats of cinematic derring-do".
