This is a tender and heartfelt tribute to her mother by the renowned Georgian filmmaker Lana Gogoberidze, who reveals all her pain and joy, but also her profound wisdom, her poetic dignity, her belief that darkness is never complete, as Paul Éluard writes. Her father Levan was shot during the Great Terror, and her mother Nutsa, whose 1934 film “Uzhmuri” was the first feature film directed by a woman in the entire Soviet Union, was sent to Siberia as the wife of an enemy of the people. By the time she returned, Lana was already an adult. Her mother never told her about her films, they were banned and disappeared immediately after her deportation. Her daughter only found them half a century later, when Nutsa was long dead. Now she is giving her mother, whose life mirrors the great cataclysms of 20th century history, back her place in film history and showing how invisible connections affect us more than we know – the heroes of many of Lana’s films are also strong women, courageous in the face of their fate. But that's not all: Lana’s daughter, Salomé Alexi, has also followed in Nutsa’s footsteps, bringing together three generations of female directors – a unique phenomenon anywhere in the world! Attention!!! The screening will be introduced by 96-year-old Lana Gogoberidze herself! Tiit Tuumalu
