What Do We See When We Look at the Sky?
Director: Alexandre Koberidze
2021 / 171min / DCP
World Cup fever and young love are in the air in the Georgian riverside city of Kutaisi; Lisa, a pharmacist, and Giorgi, a soccer player, smitten on first sight with one another, make plans for a date—plans that go awry when both awaken transformed beyond recognition, each unable to recognize the other. Fumbling towards reunion, the would-be couple’s eyes are opened to a whole new world where surprises lurk in every cafe, courtyard, and cinema in Koberidze’s standout second feature, an enchanting, inventive modern-day fairy tale that confirmed its writer-director as among the most distinctive voices in the burgeoning Georgian New Wave.
