Merab, a Georgian young man in his twenties, according to him, his ancestors came from a family of dancers. He started dancing as soon as he walked. His elder sister had nothing to do, and his elder brother would not come back until the sun rose every day.

Merab's life was day after day, until Irakli appeared, from curiosity, to hostility, to love, in just a few days, Merab's childhood sweetheart Mary once said that he should go to the park to do "things". It should be something that young people with wanton desires yearn for, but Merab didn't think about it at all. He said that he hoped that his first time would be better.

I kind of think of when I was in high school, I was always like Merab. I fantasized about those things, but I was afraid of them. It was like a film. I hoped that when I pierced it, it would be sweet inside. For some people it backfires.

The days when I went to Mary's house changed Merab completely. With Irakli's teasing, the two attracted each other, Merab's body was awakened somewhere, just like the moment when the little freckles put on women's clothes in "The Danish Girl", Merab I found that I don't have no desires, but I don't have desires for girls. .

But Irakli didn't disappear like he thought. . To be honest, some of the plots here are too simple.

Then there is the old routine, being discovered, excluded, the exit hurts Mary, who cares about herself, and her foot is hurt.

The last dance is a bit long, and it doesn't show too much emotional climax and ups and downs.

It doesn't matter if the familiar drum beats, stands on tiptoe, spins, jumps, falls and bleeds, he said what the hell is the jump. I said: Hey, I'm dancing the Georgian Dirge, which I also call the Death of Youth.

    There's a touch of vulgarity, but also a touch of wow, a little cool, and a queer upbringing story. It is seamlessly integrated with Georgian culture and dance, giving the outside audience a glimpse, and listening to the director qa also understands that it also exposes the life of Georgian youth who are not well described, so it has a great response in China. The picture is so beautiful, and the male protagonist has never acted. (Listen to the director's speech qa to learn more about the story before and after plus one star

    VIFF19 #11 [Playhouse] A good male protagonist is half the success of a movie. I can't help but raise the corners of my mouth when I see him laugh. A couple of dance scenes (Merab & Irakli duo, honey, solo at the end) plus heart-pounding drums is really breathtaking. Although many scenes remind me of cmbyn (smelling clothes, biting necklaces, making noises when entering the door in the middle of the night, understanding girls, congratulations on engagement, comfort from family), but there is still an essential difference when you think about it carefully. It is still a traditional LGBTQ theme. From beginning to end, we are reminded of the society's vision of Masculinity, and cmbyn is a fresh and refined existence...Anyways, just for the male protagonist, it is quite worth seeing!
