Blackbird Blackbird Blackberry

“A gentle gem about mid-life love and loneliness.” ★★★★ The Guardian

Etero (Eka Chavleishvili) is facing the autumn of her life, when she very nearly falls to her death when picking blackberries outside her Georgian village. A vision of the life unlived opens before her, and she seizes on life’s pleasures, starting with losing her virginity to father of two, Murman (Temiko Chichinadze). What blossoms between them is unique and tentative, love on its own terms.

A sparkling, witty and gently hilarious take on later love, this is sure to appeal to fans of Aki Kaurismakï (Fallen Leaves) and anyone who thinks joy can be squeezed from life at any age.
