A 48-year-old woman living in a small Georgian village, Etero never wanted a husband. Commanding and intelligent, possessed of a stoic independence and a dry wit, she cherishes her freedom as much as the mille-feuille she repeat-orders at her local café. But when a passionate encounter brings a new recklessness into her life, she must decide whether to pursue love or continue alone.
Wry, endearing and thoughtful, funny and sad, the film boasts a satisfying emotional ambiguity, deepened by Chavleishvili’s delightful performance as the formidable/vulnerable Etero, the summery cinematography, and an eclectic soundtrack.
“A warm, witty and wise film... it will leave a smile on your face for days.” (The Irish Times)
