Unfortunately the previous review is very uninformative and completely misses the essence, as well as the storyline of the film. This short film represents probably the reason Georgian cinema can claim it's place in the pantheon of world cinema. The script is one of the most thought-through, clever, witty, extremely funny and deeply tragic at the same time. Tragic-farce is the staple of Georgian cinema and to be able to think freely in terms of tragedy and supreme comedy at the same time is a pure gift of god and unabated talent. Babluani clearly possesses this gift. Unfortunately, a lot of stuff, that has purely Georgian cultural references maybe lost in translation but poetry can never be translated either...
