Festival history

The lives, dreams and destinies of the extraordinary characters unfold amidst the ruins of a post-apocalyptic mining town. Zurab, a music teacher is on a quest to destroy gigantic buildings to keep his sanity and provide for his family; Archil, a miner- turned-actor has to make a life-altering choice between giving up his dream by quitting theater or feeding his family by keeping his job at the mines and as a result becoming miserable; and two malnourished champion athletes have to overcome the odds and win the next Olympic games to survive.
