Brief synopsis:
Tbilisi in the early nineties. In the lives of families in the old part of the city, everyone in their own way has to come to terms with the changes that have taken place in their city. Maia's eldest son Giorgi is running away from her, while her youngest son, Datuna, a young and talented pianist, has to cope with the violence that is gradually becoming a part of their daily lives. In the building opposite, another tragedy: Datuna's young friend Achil has lost his grandfather in the war. The old man is sick and bedridden.
Note:
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.
