Nowadays, when the emerging Georgian democracy has entered the decisive phase of its fight for its very existence, the 

value of Georgian cinematography as a particular branch of artistic activities goes far beyond the limits of purely artistic significance. 

We see it as one of the main means to reinforce our unique identity and to introduce it to the free world. 

Last year Georgian cinematography marked its 100th anniversary. This means that it has a rich and unique tradition, since 

during the whole period of the last century Georgian filmmakers create tens of masterpieces which are still held in high esteem 

among the film critics of the world. But in order to prevent the tradition from becoming the domain of history and to prevent 

Georgian cinematography from becoming a mere museum specimen, we must ensure the present-day dynamic development of 

industry. Despite the serious worldwide economic crisis, which is acutely felt also in our country, today Georgian film industry 

is once again gaining momentum. Naturally, this is a complicated and costly process. Nevertheless we cordially believe that the 

intensification and further development of this process has no alternative. 

Films festival as such is an inseparable part of film industry. Therefore, “Prometheus” contributes to the reinforcement of 

filmmaking traditions in Georgia and its popularization on a worldwide scale. “Prometheus” has almost all prerequisites from 

a regional scale festival to transform into a cultural event of a worldwide significance. This requires not only material support, 

but also innovative thinking and self-denying efforts. I would like to wish every success to the 10th festival, as well as to all of its 

participants and hope that the festival will become an exiting and enjoyable experience for all of them!

Almost ten years Tbilisi International Film Festival has been offering the main cinematic event of the year to the wide circle 

of its friends, fans and supporters, movie enthusiasts as well as professionals employed in the film industry. 

Film Festival is a visiting card of any country’s cultural life revealing its past, present, future and creative potential. Hence the 

support provided by Tbilisi City Hall and the Ministry of Culture has been of decisive and strategic importance. We have perfect 

confidence that our cooperation in this direction is going to be efficient in the future and Tbilisi International Film Festival will 

win worthy place on the map of the World culture. 

The Goethe Institute and Alexander Dumas French Culture Center are our reliable partners like they were in the previous 

years. Embassies of Italy, Holland and Turkey as well as the Georgian-British Culture Platform joined them in the current year. 

Owing to cooperation with the latter Tbilisi International Film Festival hosts the London Film School, its director Ben Gibson 

and chairman of the Board of Governors Mike Leigh, a renowned British director. 

On behalf of the Festival group I would like to express gratitude to the sponsors, friends and devoted viewers. 

I wish you a pleasant trip in the world of cinema!!!

The Arab student Anas and the German student Anne meet in a dormitory and fall in love. They get 

married quickly despite the disapproval of their parents. When Anas is suspected to be an Islamist 

by the German secret service, this ruins the relationship of the young couple. After having detained 

and released Anas, the German secret service admits to have suspected him in error. But for Anas 

this positive turn of events comes too late.

After her boyfriend unexpectedly breaks up with her because he’s been dating her best friend, 19year 

old Ofka is left to wonder what really matters in life. Wrapped up in her own problems, she 

takes no notice of the love her closest male friend, Ubr, has for her. Ofka works night shifts at a 24hour 

convenience store in modern-day Prague, which inevitably brings her in contact with many 

unique characters who, like her, are awake when the rest of the city sleeps. Even these odd experiences, 

though, don’t seem to move her in any way until, one night, the shop is robbed. This assault 

shakes Ofka out of her self-absorbed lethargy and makes her take a fresh look at the world around 

her. A film about love, the tenderness of friendship, and hope.

The life of Marieke - a cheerful and carefree woman - is transformed by an act of violence. She 

decides to escape from her hometown and buys a remote and derelict cottage in the Zeeland countryside. 

By making a new start, she hopes to be able to shake off the violent experience, but the cold 

and loneliness only add to her feelings of fear and vengeance. With the arrival of summer and a new 

love, Marieke seems to be regaining strength. But slowly, she loses this grip on her life.

After their mother’s death her children - stepbrother and stepsister - have no choice but to go and 

find their fathers in the big city. On their way they meet many people of the most different kind 

- people that are kind or wicked, rich and poor, wise and idiot. But one thing stays the same as 

nobody really cares for them, because everybody’s got to deal with their own problems. And all the 

more - in the night on the eve of Christmas. Cold and magic Christmas night ends up with by no 

means fairytale final.

WILL NOT STOP THERE CROATIA / SERBIA 2008 

Martin is a Croatian war veteran whose life changes when, by a bizzare twist of fate, he recognizes Desa 

as the leading actress in a serbian porn film. Martin embarks on a quest to find her which leads him to 

Belgrade, where he finds her working as a hooker. When he takes Desa to Zagreb, she’s convinced that 

Martin is also a pimp who brought her to Croatia to work as a prostitute but she doesn’t understand 

why he treats her so politely. Martin dares not to tell her that he knows her from before, during the 

war... Despite all the confusion and mutual misunderstandings, a strange kind of love blossoms between 

Martin and Desa, which makes it even more difficult for Martin to reveal his secret...

PANDORA’S BOX TURKEY / BELGIUM / FRANCE / GERMANY 2008 

When three forty-something-year-old siblings in Istanbul receive a call one night that their ageing 

mother has disappeared from her home on the Western Black Sea Coast of Turkey, the three 

set out to find her, momentarily setting aside their problems. As the siblings come together, the 

tensions between them quickly become apparent, like Pandora’s box spilling open. They come to 

realize that they know very little about each other. And even more so, they are forced to reflect on 

their own shortcomings.

The film is a political fable that depicts the frail equilibrium of the world and questions the values 

of international politics. It takes us through a critical and violent year in the life of Georgian state 

- from the presidential election of January 2008, when everything seemed possible, to the chaos 

of the August war with Russia and the sobering aftermath - and raises questions about political 

responsibility and the morality of international affairs. The story is told through its main actors: 

the Georgian president, the Georgian government, the political opposition, foreign leaders , international 

delegations and organisations and, most of all, the ordinary Georgian people.

High up in the Caucasus mountains, the haunting harmonies of a male voice choir are heard as 

various landmarks of Georgia are introduced. British journalist Robert Parsons, now working for, 

first came to Georgia in the 1980s and was astonished that nearly every family he visited was able to 

sing traditional songs in complex harmony. Since then he has been a constant visitor to Georgia and 

witnessed much of the remarkable and often tragic events that have taken place. He has also built a 

house amongst the lush countryside and vineyards in the valley of Kakheti, the earliest recognised 

cradle of wine and regular invasion route of the Persians from the east. 

With Rob Parsons as our guide, the film captures a unique musical journey through a cultural tradition, 

thousands of years old and still flourishing.

THE WORLD IS BIG AND SALVATION LURKS AROUND THE CORNER 

BULGARIA / GERMANY / HUNGARY / SLOVENIA 2008 

This is the story of a Bulgarian boy who grows up to be a German man. After a car accident Alex 

can’t remember even what his name is. In an attempt to cure him from amnesia, his grandfather 

Bai Dan comes to Germany and organizes a spiritual journey for his grandson back into his past, 

to the country where he came from. While traveling across time and place and crossing half of 

Europe, they play backgammon, the simplest, and yet the most complex of all games. This game 

leads Alex to a realization of who he is, and that backgammon is a key to his story. Destiny is the 

dice we hold in our own hands and life is a game somewhere between chance and skill.

TABLEAU HUNGARY 2008 

The film is a grotesque panoramic rendition of today’s hopeless, inhuman societies. 

It is an exciting story with a social sensibility, which is psychologically well established while being 

grotesquely entertaining at the same time.

THE GEORGIAN UPRISING (THE RUSSIAN WAR) NETHERLANDS 2009 

During World War II, a group of 800 Georgian prisoners of war joined the German army and were put to 

work by the Germans on the Dutch island of Texel. A hard, but tolerable, existence; until they were told that 

they were to be sent to the Western Front to fight in the German army. “We decided it would be better to 

fight to the death there,” is how one of the Georgians, who survived the imprisonment and uprising, sums 

up the general feeling at the time. The life-or-death struggle - which initially went well - had far-reaching 

consequences, also for the population of Texel. The Germans sent a large detachment of troops to the island 

to crush the uprising, leading to the deaths of not only many Georgians, but also many islanders.

otherwise be impossible to endure, the family chooses to ignore the truth, not to see, hear or talk

Three women from three different generations. Grandmother, mother and daughter. Three women lost 

in the past, the present and the future. 

Minou is a weaver and an expert rug-maker. She lives with her mother and daughter and is busy trying to 

repair a valuable old kelim rug. Caught up in her own world of dreams and obsessions, she hardly takes 

any notice of the other two women living with her. But then her daughter disappears, and Minou’s mother 

gets lost and can’t find her way home. Minou sets off in search of them. 

The journeys these three women undertake help them to discover who they are. But will they be able to 

live together again?

In the wake of a major battle of Iran-Iraq war, a cameraman finds himself stranded in the wilderness 

alongside the only other survivors, an Iraqi and an Iranian soldiers. With a single gun between them, 

the soldiers alternatively take each other hostage, marching aimlessly upon the scorched earth to an 

unknown destination. Realizing that neither has anything left to go back to, they form an unlikely 

friendship, to which the cameraman is the sole witness.

THE SHAFT CHINA 2008 

In three interrelated parts, the film progressively focuses on individual members of a family living 

in a mining town in western China. The episodes follow on from one another chronologically, although 

they do not simply trace the continual development of a single family. In the symbolic way 

their lives are bound together, the protagonists - namely, the daughter who has to choose between 

her dreams and a suitable marriage, the son who is about to start life down the mine, and the father 

who has just retired - represent the universal lot of men and women from mining towns, which 

stands in stark contrast to their aspirations.

THE VOICES IRAN 2009 

This is the story of three lonely Characters who live in different floors of an apartment. On the 

third floor, a girl lives by herself. She is supposed to immigrate to U.S very soon. On the first floor 

a sound engineer lives who has just established a home-studio. His wife has recently abandoned 

him and he is trying to persuade her to rejoin him. On the second floor a divorced man lives who 

seems to be a mob. He murders a man, and this event is a link to relate the life of three characters. 

But it is a strange relationship, because there is only one way: the voices.

The life of the seemingly intact family of Eliane and Thomas Richter suddenly collapses when their 

19-year-old son Alexander is killed in a tragic accident. To help herself get over the loss the deeply distraught 

mother commissions the famous artist Max Hollander to paint a portrait of Alexander based on 

photographs of the boy, together with his sister Lilli. Lilli herself has her own problems and she thinks 

her mother’s plan to hang her brother as “decoration” on the wall is ridiculous. 

Through the encounter with the much older artist Lilli begins to win back her self-confidence. Max is 

drawn ever deeper into the complex, emotionally charged network of the family.

IN BERLIN GERMANY 2009 

In this film, Michael Ballhaus and Ciro Cappellari trace the changes that have taken place in Berlin 

and try to encapsulate on screen the energy of a city that, twenty years after the fall of the Wall, 

has found a new kind of normality. This documentary is also a heartfelt declaration of love to a 

fascinating metropolis and its people. In their poetic, cinematic essay, the filmmakers encounter 

personalities for whom Berlin, with its unique setting, is the only place to realise their dreams; in 

doing so, they reinvent themselves - and the city - every day.

Jerichow, a village in northeastern Germany - the area is poor and there is little work to be found. 

Here three people, off the beaten path of life, stumble into a fateful encounter: Thomas, young, 

strong, taciturn, a former soldier, dishonourably discharged; Ali, a bit the worse for wear, but still 

affable, a Turkish businessman in Germany who is mainly concerned that the employees at his 

snack bars don’t cheat him; Laura, a woman with a past, attractive, but somewhat withdrawn into 

the shadows in her marriage with Ali. 

Thomas, Ali and Laura withhold themselves and their secrets from one another. They want love, 

but are also very concerned with security. They are dependent on each other, but what they want 

can only be reached at the cost of betrayal.

JOHN RABE GERMANY / CHINA / FRANCE 2009 

China stood in flames as a German businessman, far from his homeland, would become a reluctant 

hero. In 1937, as the Imperial Japanese Army attacked China, with undreamed of brutality 

against the civilian population of the then capital Nanking, John Rabe takes action. Together with 

a small group of international business people, doctors and missionaries who remain in the city, 

he managed, under great personal danger, to set up a safety zone for civilians, in which 250,000 

people survived, what would enter the history books as, the “Nanking Massacre”.

The Salzlipp twins grow up without their father. The boy and the girl are convinced he is an important 

superhero secret agent. But when he eventually comes home, it turns out that he is but a 

puny, insignificant meteorologist who had been innocently languishing in jail. The children refuse 

to accept that this is their father. And sexy Mrs. Salzlipp has fallen in love with another man. But 

Salzlipp fights back. He discovers that he can influence and indeed manipulate the weather. He can 

turn summertime into deep frost. Magic! Maybe he can use his gift to win back his family?

completed in 1980. She debuted as a director with A Journey to Sopot in 1980. 

Her 1986 work Robinsonada or My English Grandfather was a breakthrough 

which won her the Caméra d’Or at the 1987 Cannes Film Festival, and both 

critical and popular acclaim. Her film A Chef in Love (1996) became the first, 

and so far the only, Georgian film to be nominated for the Academy Award.

WHISKY WITH VODKA Germany 2009 

The actor Otto Kullberg is a man women love and men like. Sometimes he drinks a little too 

much. When his excessive drinking leads him to miss a day on the set of his new film and it seems 

like he’s about to blow the whole thing, a younger actor is hired to shoot all the scenes a second 

time as a backup solution: Leo the producer is not willing to lose any money. Otto, a man of fast 

wit and driven by his need to be at the center of attention, finds himself forced to assert his role on 

the set, and to redefine his role in his own life.

THE CLASS FRANCE 2008 

François is a tough but fair teacher working in one of France’s toughest schools, and his honest demeanor 

in the classroom has made him a great success with the students. But this year things are different, because 

when the students begin to challenge his methods François will find his classroom ethics put to the ultimate 

test. François and his fellow teachers prepare for a new year at a high school in a tough neighborhood. 

Armed with the best intentions, they brace themselves to not let discouragement stop them from trying to 

give the best education to their students. Cultures and attitudes often clash in the classroom, a microcosm of 

contemporary France. As amusing and inspiring as the teenaged students can be, their difficult behavior can 

still jeopardize any teacher’s enthusiasm for the low-paying job. François insists on an atmosphere of respect 

and diligence. Neither stuffy nor severe, his extravagant frankness often takes the students by surprise. But 

his classroom ethics are put to the test when his students begin to challenge his methods...

An aging chief ’s last stand, lessons for the new, and the education of a young chief-to-be played 

against harsh Nature in Nepal’s Dolpo. When his son dies returning from Tibet’s salt lakes, Tinle 

blames Karma, his son’s friend, refuses to give Karma his blessing as the new chief, and organizes 

a rival caravan to take the salt to lower Nepal to trade for grain. He, a few old men, his 

son’s widow, his grandson, and his second son, a monk, set out on the arduous journey. Fearing 

storms, Karma has led his caravan out of the village before the auspicious day ordained by the 

lamas. Tinle’s group catches Karma’s before the final pass; the two stubborn men lock wills with 

Tinle’s grandson watching.

LOL (LAUGHING OUT LOUD) FRANCE 2008 

LOL, an abbreviation for laughing out loud is a common element of Internet slang. 

The story focuses on Lola aka “Lol” who is dealing with school, love, friendship and family issues. 

Her mother, played by Sophie Marceau, is having an affair with her ex-husband and is torn 

between her responsibilities as a mother and her irresponsible behavior as an adult. As for Lol, 

she breaks up with her boyfriend who told her he had sex with another girl over the summer and 

starts to fall for his best friend. In a world where I-pods, cell phones & MSN have taken so much 

importance, communication is often difficult between teens and their overwhelmed parents.

ASSOCIATION FOR CINEMA PROMOTION - ANEMIC 

The Association of ANEMIC was established in 2005 in Florence 

to promote high quality cinema. The Association focuses 

especially on the works of young filmmakers, short and 

medium length documentary and scientific films - those directions 

in the cinema which despite their high cultural and 

artistic value often encounter difficulties while occupying 

their place in distribution and introducing themselves to the 

wide circles of viewers. 

The ANEMIC Association was named after Anemic Cinema, 

the renowned film made by Marcel Duchamp in 1925 and its 

symbolic name responds to the goals of the association. The 

Florence Film Festival established by the ANEMIC Association 

is held for the fourth time this year and consists of three 

sections: 

1. Vision off - preliminary show in the presence of the authors 

(often the first works of the authors are presented in this section); 

2. Sonar Film Festival _ moklemetraJiani filmebis 

saerTaSoriso konkursi;

2. Sonar Film Festival - international contest of short-length 

films; 

3. Omaggio - the show of films of any of the world-wide renowned 

directors and meetings dedicated to the author. 

Further the ANEMIC Association takes part in the educational 

and working events intended for the youth with audiovisual 

and film materials prepared specifically for such cases. 

We were pleased to accept the Tbilisi International Film Festival 

offer about cooperation in organizing the section dedicated 

to the Italian cinema. It is a great honour for us - representatives 

of Italian cinema - to participate in such a prestigious 

and interesting international event.

Gianfranco Coldrin, a model university student with a degree in “volcanology”, makes a trip 

through hell on the lowest rung on the professional ladder in a call centre. When his adoptive 

grandparents send them off into sudden undesired independence, Gianfranco and Marzia come 

up against the grotesque reality of an upside-down world governed by rather suspicious individuals 

in which university degrees and skills have no value. Marzia wants to be a reporter but finds 

herself forced to accept employment as a switchboard operator for an erotic hotline, while Gianfranco 

sinks into the trap of holding down two jobs. Despite the enthusiasm of their good intentions, 

the contrast between their expectations and the reality of a “horribly expensive” life end up 

having an impact on their relationship. But then something happens…

Power, money and blood: these are the “values” that the residents of the Province of Naples and Caserta, 

have to face every day. They hardly ever have a choice, and are almost always forced to obey 

the rules of the “system”, the Camorra. Only a lucky few can even think of leading a “normal” life. 

Five stories are woven together in this violent scenario, set in a cruel and apparently imaginary 

world, but one which is deeply rooted in reality.

MY BROTHER IS THE ONLY CHILD ITALY / FRANCE 2007 

Two brothers come of age in the 1960s in a town south of Rome. Manrico is handsome, sometimes 

feckless, a leftist making the revolution. His younger brother Accio (“Bully”) is a seminarian when 

the story beings, soon home studying Latin and joining the Fascists. Francesca, an aristocratic student, 

becomes Manrico’s lover and Accio’s friend. Over the next ten years, these three experience 

family, love, attraction, politics, and the challenges of adult responsibility. Subplots include Nastri, 

a father figure and political guide to Accio, Nastri’s wife Bella who guides Accio in other ways, and 

the brothers’ parents and sister, who are dazzled by Manrico’s charm while depending on Accio.

Luchetti’s first film as director was Domani accadrà of 1988, which won a David di 

Donatello as best debuting film and received a mention in the 1988 Cannes Film Festival. 

His subsequent work was the successful Il portaborse (1991), featuring Silvio 

Orlando as the ghost-writer of a ruthless politician, played by Nanni Moretti. It was 

seen as a forecast of the Mani Pulite corruption scandal that struck Italy the following 

year. The film won four David di Donatello awards.

PUCCINI AND THE YOUNG GIRL ITALY 2008 

The film explores a rather more private chapter in the life of the composer Giacomo Puccini: the 

suicide of his maid Doria Manfredi. Long believed to be his lover, the woman poisoned herself in 

1909, at a time when the musician was composing “The Girl of the Golden West.” 

The enchantment and mystery of musical creation, a Tuscan idyll of spellbinding beauty, 

an intimate and poignant moment in an impassioned life.

Poet and philosopher Jivany is one of the renowned personalities of the Armenian culture of 19- 

20th RETURN OF THE POET ARMENIA 2007 

centuries. His power lies in his clear thinking and philosophic outlook, in the idea to be freed 

from complexities and formalities. The film is about modern Armenia seen through Jivany’s eyes 

and shot under a critical glance. It documents the creation and transportation of Jivany’s monument 

from Yerevan, the capital of Armenia, to Javakhk, Jivany’s birthplace. Thus, the main hero of 

the film is not a human being but a monument.

This story takes place in the post-soviet period, after the Armenian-Azeri conflict. The film tells 

about a village situated near the conflict zone, where the benefactor of Armenian descent from 

America opened a charitable canteen and refugees from different places work in a farm. The story 

begins when the villagers find a buffalo lost in the swamp, untamed and barely alive. They bring 

the buffalo to the farm, where it is treated as an enemy by the dogs guarding the farm and farmers 

and refugees exhausted from the war. We see the village life during the whole year through the 

eyes of the buffalo. Summer, autumn, and winter pass. The seasons change, but the monotonous 

life in the village goes on slowly.

RETURN TO THE PROMISED LAND ARMENIA 1991 

For many ages the Armenian nation, having no statehood, has concentrated all its values in the 

family and made it the center of the national spirit. The main characters of the film arrived in 

northern Armenia and not from paradise. They are refugees who escaped from violence. Both of 

them are young. The woman is pregnant. They create a world around themselves, and thus create 

themselves.

LONDON INTERNATIONAL 

FILM SCHOOL 

The London Film School (LIFS) 

Founded in 1956. 

The school’s current director is Ben Gibson and its current chairman 

of the Board of Governors is Mike Leigh 

The LFS is the oldest-established international school of film technique 

in the world. Rather than try and create a national cinema, as 

so many government-funded schools have done, LFS from the outset 

fostered a broad, craft-based culture of excellence and focused on 

the distinguished students from different countries. Only 25 % of the 

school students are of British origin at the moment. 

In 1974 the school was re-named as LIFS, the London International 

Film School. The LIFS constitution is very unusual. The School is a 

registered charity, a non-profit making company. All students become 

members of the Association, and, together with the other members, 

elect a Board of Governors which has the overall responsibility for the 

management of the School. The current Chairman is the internationally 

renowned British director and LFS graduate Mike Leigh. 

While London University ratifies the LIFS syllabus it still remains a 

completely independent educational institution. 

The Film School graduates number more than 3000 history and 

among them are Michael Mann, Mike Leigh, Ian Smith, Terry Bradford, 

Curtis Clark, Tak Fujimoto, John Irvin, Miguel Pereira, Franc 

Roddam, David Scott, Jeffrey Simpson, Ivan Stresberg, Ian Wilson 

and others. 

The school generates about 180 films each year of which 25-40 are 

being sent to different film festivals. The LIFS films were presented at 

over 100 festivals and achieved lots of prizes within 2007, including 

7 main awards. 5 short films were nominated for BAFTA award this 

year and one of them was the London Film School production. 

The LIFS post-graduate film courses are one of the most advanced in 

the world. Nearly 25 undergraduates are divided in 5-6 groups and 

pass several difficult stages in 2-year course of study the main principle 

of which is indivisibility of craft and art. 

Georgian Minister of culture, monuments protection and sports Mr. 

Nikoloz Rurua, the LIFS director Mr. Ben Gibson and chairman of 

board of governors Mr. Mike Leigh will sign paramount memorandum 

within the framework of the Tbilisi 10th international film festival. 

Under the memorandum the best young Georgian directors will 

be able to continue their studies in the London Film School by the state 

scholarship. And the festival program will include 16 short-length 

films produced by the LIFS.

CHINA BLUE USA / CHINA 2005 

China Blue takes us inside a blue-jeans factory, where Jasmine and her friends are trying to survive 

a harsh working environment. But when the factory owner agrees to a deal with his Western client 

that forces his teenage workers to work around the clock, a confrontation becomes inevitable. 

Shot clandestinely in China, under difficult conditions, this is a deep-access account of what both 

China and the international retail companies don’t want us to see - how the clothes we buy are 

actually made.

Using a combination of archive audio recordings, still photographs, drama reconstruction, and 

animation, this surreal and comic tale is an account of a journey made by the director’s father 

through Soviet Russia in the early 1970s in a van he built and named “Supervan.” Truth can indeed 

be stranger than fiction, and sometimes the gray area between the two is the most interesting place 

to explore.

SHOOTING UNDER FIRE ISRAEL / PALESTINE 2005 

Reinhard Krause, the German head of the Reuters Israeli photo bureau is up against a deadline 

and facing a moral dilemma. He’s looking at a photo that shows the head of the female suicide 

bomber still perfectly in tact lying on the ground, severed cleanly from her body without a blemish 

on her face and with no blood to be seen. Does he decide to show this to the world or keep 

it hidden? “Every picture must tell a story” Reinhard says and it’s clear what happened with this 

frame, but is the world ready for this kind of image? He needs to decide within minutes. Welcome 

to the everyday difficulties of depicting a story that keeps rolling on with new horrors. 

This film gets behind the world’s oldest news agency to show how the news is made and reported 

on, from the first ambulance text of an accident in Jerusalem to the front page of the papers the 

next morning. Few of us stop to think how our stories and pictures come to us. With unprecedented 

access Shooting under Fire shows us the full process, highlighting the staggeringly fast 

digital technology, the difficult morals that await even the toughest of snappers, and the extreme 

lives that people lead in a land in war.

SISTERS IN LAW CAMEROON 2006 

Winner of the Prix Art et Essai at the Cannes Film Festival and screened to acclaim at more than 

120 festivals around the world, SISTERS IN LAW is the latest documentary from internationally 

renowned director Kim Longinotto, co-directed by Florence Ayisi. 

In the little town of Kumba, Cameroon, there have been no convictions in spousal abuse cases for 

17 years. But two women determined to change their community are making progress that could 

change the world. This fascinating, often hilarious doc follows the work of State Prosecutor Vera 

Ngassa and Court President Beatrice Ntuba as they help women fight often-difficult cases of abuse, 

despite pressures from family and their community to remain silent. Six-year-old Manka is covered 

in scars and has run away from an abusive aunt, Amina is seeking a divorce to put an end to brutal 

beatings by her husband, the pre-teen Sonita has daringly accused her neighbor of rape. 

With fierce compassion, the two feisty and progressive-minded women dispense wisdom, wisecracks 

and justice in fair measure, handing down stiff sentences to those convicted. A cross between 

“Judge Judy” and “The No.1 Ladies’ Detective Agency,” SISTERS IN LAW has audiences 

cheering when justice is served.

TODAY’S MAN USA 2006 

Today’s Man is a sister’s search to understand her brother’s mysterious inner life. Nicky Gottlieb 

was a child of extraordinary talents and odd behavior. At 21 he is diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome 

- a high functioning form of Autism. Nicky has no ability to read social cues, or to read the 

emotion on faces, and so he begins to “memorize” appropriate behavior in a brave attempt to fit in 

to the “normal” world. The film follows Nicky as he struggles to leave the safety of his family’s home 

and the comfort of his favorite TV shows in order to find a job and a place in the world. Made by 

Nicky’s sister, Today’s Man is both a personal and family drama, a deep exploration of a fascinating, 

perplexing disorder. But it is Nicky himself that is the heart of the film. He is full of enthusiasm, 

wonderful revelations, and startling insights.

KNUT HAMSUN AND CINEMA 

The homeland of Knut Hamsun Norway celebrated the 150th anniversary 

of the writer’s birth in the present year and implemented yearlong 

program of commemorations of the author. The nation-wide events were 

held under the patronage of the royal family of Norway and personally 

Queen Mete-Meritt. 

Our country along with the American and European countries responded 

to the writer’s jubilee. Hamsun traveled in Georgia in 1899 and 

reflected his journey in his book of In Wonderland. His play Queen Tamar 

is a result of this Odyssey as well. 

Keen interest towards the Hamsun works has been unfading in Georgia 

since XX century. 

The Tbilisi 10th jubilee film festival of this year presents some films 

based on the novels of Norwegian writer for the first time. 

More than 25 films are based on Hamsun’s works including a biopic. 

It is paradoxical that the first screen versions of the Norwegian writer’s 

works belong to actors rather than directors. For example his Pan was filmed 

by an actor of Oslo National theatre Harald Schwenzen in 1922. The 

curiosity of viewers of Pan was particularly aggravated by a dramatic epilogue 

shot by the film authors in Africa and Algeria. Right in that period 

of time orientalism came into fashion and the film’s epilogue_ adventurous 

trip of lieutenant Glan to the remote exotic country - fits in an aesthetic 

demand of that time. The last screen version of Hamsun’s works in the period 

of silent movies was Sværmere a film by the first professional director 

of Swedish nationality - Brunius, which was based on Hamsun’s Dreamers. 

The film’s premiere was held in Stockholm in 1923. 

The first sound film on the basis of Hamsun’s novel Victoria was made 

later on in Germany in 1935 and was directed by a famous cameraman 

Carl Hoffman. Soon Victoria was followed by another German director’s 

Olav Ford’s film Pan. The Story of Lieutenant Glan. 

Hamsun himself as a man of conservative manner was quite skeptical 

and indifferent about the XX century technical miracle _ cinematography 

and was not enthusiastic about the screen versions of his novels. The only 

exception which the writer approved of was Markens grøde (Growth of the 

Soil, 1921), a silent movie by Gunnar Sommerfeldt. 

This year Georgian filmgoers can see and appreciate some screen versions 

of the novels by the great Norwegian writer and the films made about 

his life.

Knut Hamsun is Norway’s most famous and admired author. Ever since he was young he has 

hated the English for the starvation they caused Norway during WWI. When the Germans occupy 

Norway 9 April 1940 he welcomes them and the protection they can give from Great Britain. 

He supports the national socialist ideals, but opposes the way these ideals are turned into action 

- that Norwegians are jailed and executed. His wife Marie travels in Germany during the war as a 

sign of support from Knut and herself.

KNUT HAMSUN’S CAUCASIAN MYSTERIES GEORGIA 2005 

In 1899 Knut Hamsun’s visit down to Caucasus passed without Printed Media accompanying him. 

The famous writer never presented himself. When he was asked to present his personal identification 

document, the tourist from the North used to show his friends’ business cards… His travel 

held a key to many secrets and misteries. Even the travel might have turned into the fatal adventure 

as it happened with the wanderer Nagel from Hamsun’s novel “Mysteries” - the main character 

of the film might be found at the boundary of life and death. Sick with the Caucasian fever 

and pursued by the police the young writer predicted the last period of his life: arrest, prison, 

no statues in the cities of Norway, Eventually - rehabilitation and popularization after his death…

GROWTH OF THE SOIL NORWAY 1921 

Isak, a middle-aged wanderer, builds himself a homestead in the middle of the wilderness. Eventually 

he is joined by Inger who is described in a caption as “comely” but disfigured with a hare 

lip. Together they tame the wilderness and have three children. Two boys and a girl. The girl is 

is born with a hare lip and Inger kills and buries her. The burial is seen by Oline, a less than nice 

neighbour, who spreads the news. Eventually Inger is tried and convicted to eight years in prison, 

little realising she is again already pregnant. 

Isak is heartbroken but continues to bring up his two sons. He sells some of his land to a copper 

mining company and becomes relatively wealthy. More settlers buy land around the homestead. 

Inger is released after eight years and returns home with the daughter she has born while in jail.

real big break came in the form of a James Bond film, The Living Daylights

HURRICANE KALATOZOV FRANCE 2009 

By offering to USSR, in 1958, the Golden Palm of the Cannes Film Festival with his masterpiece: 

“ Cranes are flying ”, Mikhail Kalatozov, director of georgian origin, opened an incredible breach 

in the greyness of the soviet film production and upset millions of spectators and tens of future 

filmmakers. 

Filmed in Moscow, Tbilissi, Havana, Honfleur and Paris this film redraws the complex route of 

Mikhaïl Kalatozov, very implied in the political, cultural and diplomatic story of the ex-USSR.

New York trapper Tom Dobb becomes an unwilling participant in the American Revolution after 

his son Ned is drafted into the Army by the villainous Sergeant Major Peasy. Tom attempts to find 

his son, and eventually becomes convinced that he must take a stand and fight for the freedom of 

the Colonies, alongside the aristocratic rebel Daisy McConnahay. As Tom undergoes his change 

of heart, the events of the war unfold in large-scale grandeur.

MIKHEIL KOBAKHIDZE 

Scriptwriter, director and composer Mikheil Kobakhidze 

was born on 5 April, 1939 in Tbilisi. He entered the film direction 

faculty of Moscow All-Union Institute of Cinematography 

in 1959 (Sergei Gerasimov and Tamara Makarova workshop). 

He had begun to make films since 1961 from the studentship 

period and produced short-length films Young Love (1961) 

and Merry-Go-Round (1962). By the aid of Sergei Gerasimov 

he passed earlier the third year finals and started in 1963 to 

make professional career in Tbilisi. It was a beginning of intensive 

but short-length creative work, intensive for its form and 

contents and short-length because the authorities have always 

put obstacles in his way. His degree work Eight and a Half was 

considered to be an anti-Soviet work and destroyed before its 

sending to Moscow. In 1964 he made another diploma film 

The Wedding which was awarded three prizes at Oberhausen 

short-length film festival – the main prize of the festival, FI- 

PRESCI prize and International Evangelistic Film Center prize.

In 1969, after Mikheil Kobakhidze made his Musicians, he was 

forbidden independent filmmaking by the decree of Alexandr 

Romanov, the chairman of Moscow State Committee of Cinematography. 

In 2001, after a long pause, Mikheil Kobakhidze 

made in France On the Way. 

The Georgian films retrospective show - Georgia in Focus 

- was held in Arsenal movie theatre of Berlin in 2007 and the 

classic of Georgian cinema showed 6 short-length films, including 

his unknown student films such as Young Love and 

Merry-Go-Round and On the Way made in France. What have 

you been doing for 34 years? – it was the first question German 

viewers asked after the film show. 

Georgian director, which has been a victim of Soviet censorship, 

has been living and working in France since 1996. Retrospective 

show of the director’s films was held at the Venice Film 

Festival in 1996.

JAQO’S LODGERS GEORGIA 2009 

A blowing wind can become one of the main characters of the film. 

A breeze, a storm, a light wind… They will serve as the visual basis of the film. One just has to envision 

the stern and straw yellow landscapes of Shida Kartli, one of the regions in Georgia, to grasp 

it the way we see it… 

One can also view the main characters according to the wind types: Teimuraz is a light wind, Margo 

is a breeze and Jakho is a storm… Ultimately, the combination of these three characteristics results 

into the storm that will blow away all of them by the end of the film.

STREET DAYS GEORGIA 2009 

45 years old junkie from Tbilisi, the main character, has to make the most important choice in his 

life, while the corrupted policemen push to inform on his friend’s 16-year-old son. Alternatively 

the character will be imprisoned for 10 years, ending his lifetime in jail. It seems as if he made his 

decision, but in the last moment his conscience awakes.

THE PARROT GEORGIA/US 2009 

A young girl, named Irma comes to the United States from Georgia after the collapse of the Soviet 

Union, without speaking any English. She starts working as a housekeeper in a childless family of 

an American couple Mary and Jay-Jay. Innocent and devoted to her job, Irma works honestly and 

hard until the couple receives a letter from a neighbor, who lost a parrot and is giving a reward if 

anybody finds it. Mary and Jay-Jay think that this amount of money could cover their one-day expenses 

for gambling. Leaving house for a weekend getaway the couple gives Irma an errand to look 

for the lost parrot, in addition to her usual work at home.

87 years old Altznei is the most authoritative lady of Pankisi Gorge. She is the only one whom 

community trust first their problems and than their diceased. The community believe that Altznei 

acts as a mediator in both worlds. How a woman can become authoritative in one of the most 

patriarchal places of Georgia, where tradition takes precedente over the law? What makes Altznei 

so distinguished from several thousand women who live in the Gorge?

Can human faces express tacitly the hell they have passed through... the film is an experiment and 

an attempt to show tragedy, which can hardly be expressed only by words and dramatic shots. The 

film is only a space - 10 minutes of silent space which provides time to think about self connection 

with the August war of several days duration.

LET YOU ALWAYS SING, MOTHER! GEORGIA 2008 

“The Earth told the conscience: you are heavier than me”- says an old lady from Pshavi in the beginning 

of the film. The camera crew traveled through Georgia, collected crumbs of grief and joy 

of Georgian mothers and included them in the film. So what the ladies say? Some remember the 

happiest days of their lives, some mourn over their husbands, some grieve for their past. And one 

lady dreams of her children maintaining their background.

The greatest contemporary British filmmaker is often compared 

with Abbas Kiarostami and Ken Loach, but in the opinion 

of Leigh himself no political pathos is felt in his films unlike 

the films by Loach. He narrates to the viewers about ordinary 

people, often the representatives of working class, leaving out 

sensations and melodrama. 

Mike Leigh was born on 20 February, 1943 in Broughton 

(Great Britain) to the family of Jewish emigrants (his family 

name - Liberman). The graduate of Royal Academy of Dramatic 

Art was considered to be a promising actor. 

Later on he continued his studies in the St. Martin Art College 

and London Film School. He began as a theatre director 

and playwright and in parallel played episodic parts in several 

British films of early 60-ies. 

By 1970 Leigh had produced nine TV plays. His early productions 

are full of satirical humour and narrate about the life 

of middle class representatives. 

Mike Leigh had been torn between the TV and cinema

“I make very stylistic films indeed, but style doesn’t become a substitute 

for truth and reality. It’s an integral, organic part of the whole thing.” 

Mike Leigh 

for about twenty years. In 1988 he made his first feature film 

High Hopes based on the novel by Dickens with the same title. 

However, the film had no ready-made script and by the insistence 

of the director was structured as an improvisation as well 

as the performance of actors. It is characteristic of Leigh, who 

begins to work on films by a plain storyline, the idea rather than 

specific scenario. Characters of the personages and gradual 

evolution of the story become visible in the process of shooting. 

The films made in the 90-ies Naked and Vera Drake tell the 

working class representatives’ story and are by far gloomy and 

brutal. Naked was awarded Palm d’Or of Cannes international 

Film Festival for best direction and Vera Drake - the American 

Film Academy award for the best script and direction. 

Secrets and Lies made in 1996 is about a successful black woman 

and was awarded four prizes of American Film Academy. 

The latest film by Mike Leigh Happy-Go-Lucky is a modernday 

comedy full of humanism and social realism (award of 

American Film Academy for the best script).

Johnny flees Manchester for London, to avoid a beating from the family of a girl he has raped. 

There he finds an old girlfriend, and spends some time homeless, spending much of his time ranting 

at strangers, and meeting characters in plights very much like his own.

FRANC RODDAM 

English filmmaker and a winner of BAFTA award (British Cinema and Television Academy) Franc Roddam was born on April 

29, 1946 in Norton, Great Britain. 

Roddam was graduated from London Film School and his first short film The Birthday (1969) was awarded the British Cinema 

and Television Academy prize. 

In the 1960-ies Roddam worked in advertising like the character of his film Quadrophenia. 

In 1977 he became famous for his film Dummy which was seen by 14 million viewers. It is a sad story about a deaf and mute girl 

Sandra, engaged in prostitution in the streets of Bradford. Geraldine James who plays the leading role was awarded Prix Italia and 

gained reputation of a gifted actress. 

An iconic film by the director Quadrophenia (1979) was loosely based on The Who’s 1973 album of the same name. 

Roddam unlike the directors of his generation Ridley Scott and Alan Parker failed to gain foothold in Hollywood. His first Hollywood 

film The Bride was a commercial flop. 

Present activity of Roddam is connected with the British TV.

Ten short pieces directed by ten different directors. Each short uses an aria as soundtrack/sound 

(Vivaldi, Bach, Wagner), and is an interpretation of the particular aria. 

Federico Fellini was attached to this project in the very beginning. He worked with Don Boyd the 

producer in Rome and only dropped out because he was ill - he was making his much delayed 

Intervista. Like everybody else who saw Aria, he loved various sections of the movie, particularly 

Roddam’s and Temple’s sections.

his job in a company’s mailing division. Only when he’s together with his friends, a “Mod” clique, 

cruises London on his motor-scooter and hears music such as that of THE WHO and “The High 

Numbers”, he feels free and accepted. However, it’s a flight into an illusionary world.
