Bakhmaro

Salomé Jashi / Georgia, Germany / 2011 / East European Premiere / 60 min.


synopsis

FilmAPATHY uses a restaurant in the western Georgian town of Chokhatauri to symbolize the decline of the southern Caucasus and the people’s weariness from economic failure and political ills. The owners are patient, but there are few guests. Election posters and TV ads promise a better life, but it looks like nothing can change.
