Brides (Armenia)
Directed by Tinatin Kajrishvili1h 34m2014
Nutsa, a young mother, lives with her two children in a suburbs of Tbilisi in Georgia. Her partner Goga is in prison. They get married, so she gains the right to talk to him once a month in the visiting room on the other side of the glass. The ceremony is quick with a strange ambiance. Goga in prison, Nutsa with children outside, a routine sets in.
Our read: Brides (Armenia) (2014) reads as a sombre, measured, grounded drama entry — measured in intensity, intimate in scope, measured in temperature, nihilistic in outlook.
Sombre, measured, measured drama, grounded in texture. Nihilistic, intimate, measured.
