Holy Mother of God!! How can this even be called a film! I have seen a lot of crap out there and my blog would be a testament to it, but this film takes the cake. It hands out beats all kinds of weird experimental cinema that is out there. To top that it is over 3 hours long. Talk about the agoney and pain one has to sit through to just see and listen to maybe about 20 minutes of dialogue in the film mostly shot on a phone with really really bad photography and cinematography. I am baffled this film could win any award at all whatsoever.
An aspiring dancer leaves his village for the city of Tbilisi, Georgia. But the audition has been cancelled. The man turns to working multiple jobs, from underground fighting to prostitution, and abandons his dreams of dancing. But the monotony of this new life is interrupted by love with ha man, who is an officer of some sorts whom he had met a couple of times before. After several chance meetings, that handsome military officer offers a large sum of money in exchange for the young man’s company. The narrator informs us that the officer, handsome and educated, is the one “in whom the young man has fallen in love.” Soon after he gets into a dance company. The man he loves has to leave the village as he is summoned to join the army, so the young man goes back to his village.
the whole film is shot from a very distant camera with the voice of an omniscient woman dictating to the audience on whats happening and translating on the screen. if not for the voice, you would think you are watching a very very low resolution video of random shots put together because they don't make any sense at all. The film just takes you all over the city of Tbilisi with showing us everyday life. I mean, i could have seen a documentary on the city with a much better photography if I was interested. and what was up with a random man repeating his memory of start of war at three different time? It made absolutely no sense. I was literally angry while I was watching the film on the time I was wasting and cursed the makers like 100 times. I pity the critics who actually liked this film and recommended people to watch it, because any sane person cannot appreciate any kind of crap thats presented for over 200 minutes long duration in today's day and age.
