Vazha Pshavela.discovered by Abuladze. traditions, pray, symbols and clashes. and the poetry as large fresco, sound of words, looks, gestures and the way of a stranger, far by his people, to close by enemy, far by the death, to close by devil. a film about honesty. as only virtue. about solitude. and about the run. about temptations. and about a new Job. but, more important, about faith. it is easy to see in "Vedreba" the reflection of the lives of Luka Razikashvili and Tenghiz Abuladze. the both are testimonies about the fight for fundamental values. the both are sacrifices. and, maybe, this is the motif for who this poem, this film are experiences for the viewer. aesthetic experience, off course. but , like a trip in the past, pieces about the meanings of yourself. because, after you see "Vedreba" again and again, something special defines an unique state. more than the story of an warrior and the story of the poet, it is the story of near every day reality. maybe, yours story. and this does "Vedreba", more than admirable cinematography, a precious gift.
