I grew up in Georgia in the early nineties, the time of the fall of the Soviet Union and the independence of the Republic of Georgia, when the collective enthusiasm for newly-won freedom would soon become a long, dark and difficult tunnel created by the chaos and the economic crisis. This chaos has scarred our collective memory and burned us with painful secrets. This is the context that served as the background to my story of a generation. It took me a while to realise just how much we have been affected by the transition period. How could we build a life for ourselves in a world where the rules changed every day, dictated by the whims of a few corrupt figures involved in a constant battle for power? The decision to make this film was driven by a desire to expose the remaining corrupt elements that still exist in Georgia today.
