LIFE AS A MASQUERADE

Barbare Kalaijishvili, დეკემბერი 2023, Professional Film /

Man is a small, pitiful creature. He only thinks about his own well-being. He has a big ego that he satisfies and feeds all his life, he doesn't look beyond himself, he doesn't care what happens to others and how he will be, he doesn't want to bare his feelings and care for the other person, he doesn't recognize other people's problems until it affects him directly. He thinks that the more he puts his "self" forward, puffs out his heart and walks like that, the better he will appear in others’ eyes. People, sometimes, are so weak that they build their happiness on the misfortune ...

AGONY

Barbare Kalaijishvili, ნოემბერი 2023, Professional Film /

People often make rash decisions. They do something and don't even think about the consequences. The most important thing for them is to solve the existing problem at that moment and take a breath, not caring what the consequences may be. Sometimes they forget that there are no hopeless situations. The only irreversible state is death, dead people cannot be revived. Fathers are the main problem – solvers ...

DISTANCE FROM POLAND TO GEORGIA

2023 year, Barbare Kalaijishvili, ნოემბერი 2023, Professional Film /

Memories never leave people. They are only forgotten for a short while and then suddenly resurface. These fragments of the past are sometimes a punishment, sometimes a gift – they contain what the mind wants to remember and what part of life has been forgotten. They don't have time and space. The story that happened in the past moves the conscious into the unconscious and stores its abbreviated, relatively distorted ...

FADED LOVE

Barbare Kalaijishvili, ოქტომბერი 2023, Professional Film /

Love is not an eternal feeling. It fades with time and gets lost in the swamp of family problems. Sometimes people try to save the relationship, but sometimes all the efforts end in failure. And still, what is love or what is it like? Perhaps, the character of Eldar Shengelaya's film "The Eccentrics," Khristofore Mgaloblishvili would say in its defense that love is vertical and rotating, but sometimes it is not like that at all. It is eternal longing or one big disappointment. Sometimes it looks like ...

SONS OF SIN

2023 year, Barbare Kalaijishvili, Professional Film, September 2023 /

School, a place where people spend most of their lives. They get to know others, make friends, they even fight, make mistakes and then all this follows them throughout their lives. Each misstep or inappropriate behavior affects others. The barriers people have from school are sometimes visible, often invisible, and destroy them. "Greetings, my painful childhood!"-

AWAKENING

2023 year, Barbare Kalaijishvili, July 2023, Professional Film /

Winter. The season when time stands still. People lock up themselves in warm houses and almost stop contact with the outside world. They are away from it all until the sun comes through their windows again or they hear a swallow chirping. There is a huge chance of depression during this period. You, as a person, remain alone with yourself and have more time to express your emotions, to find out in life. Depression and existential crisis occur when favorable conditions arise and remain with a person for a very long time.

FAR FROM LOVE

2023 year, Barbare Kalaijishvili, June 2023, Professional Film /

Is "The Martyrdom of Shushanik" a family drama? Probably not, but Manana's life really looked like a family drama in the movie "My Happy Family" (2017, directed by Nana Ekvtimishvili and Simon Groß), which is an example of broken love. It follows the stages that couples who do not live alone have to go through. When a third person interferes in the relationship between husband and wife, everything gets mixed up and looks like chaos, and there is no way out of chaos, and thus the love that once connected them...
