I Am Gayane From Tiflis... Russia
2007, 26min.
Prod.: Maria Sementsova, Script: Kora Tsereteli, Dir.: Levon Grigoryan, Kora Tsereteli, Dir. of Phot.: Nodar Paliashvili, Edit.: Boris Sheinin.
The artist from Tbilisi Gayane Khachaturian is our contemporary. But all her creativity is painted by that colour with which her native city was famous before, when it still named Tiflis. Memory and imagination of the artist return us to that city, in which people did not walk, but stalked, to that city which was similar to a theatre, when streets were overflown with celebratory processions. The film contains confidential reflections of Gayane Khachaturian, the episodes painted with unique shape and melodies of the old Tiflis and, certainly - bright paints of her original pictures.
