Straddling Europe and Asia, Georgia deserves more than just a simple unfocused look. The director, who had been living here for two years, wanted to dispatch some images back to the West. Ten years after its independence, post-Soviet Georgia has been unable to emerge from the many crises that came with its rebirth. One of its famous children is called Stalin. His museum remains a pilgrimage site and his defenders many. Thus, talking about the Chechens, they recall that Stalin settled for having them deported, whereas Putin kills them. These Chechens found refuge in a closed-in valley where the witnesses talk about the acts of violence they were subject to. Amid an often passive population, some resist: such as these two woman who have created a day home for the mentally handicapped, or this painter who does ferocious caricatures of all sorts of bad habits.
