April
April
1961
It is a beautiful parable of how mundane existence can stifle even the most sacred of feelings. Through this film, Iosseliani warns us: if we sacrifice our lives solely to the accumulation of possessions, we will find one day that we have everything, yet our soul has become hollow.
