Otar Iosseliani presents Georgia in all its majesty-its history, frescoes, and song—alongside its profound tragedy: war, ruin, and folly. The viewer witnesses how a nation of such immense culture became a playground for men with guns. The director aims to remind Georgians of their identity and to force a reflection on why they fell so far. It is a quest for an answer to the question: “What has become of us?” This is more than a historical account; it is a warning. Iosseliani invites us to look into a mirror-an act that is often painful, yet vital for healing.
