Dea Kulumbegashvili / GE, FR, 2020 / 126 min.

In her narrative feature debut, Dea Kulumbegashvili from Georgia shows just how deeply a sudden catastrophe can impact someone’s personal life. When locals burn down Jehova’s Witnesses Yana and David’s church, this unleashes an existential crisis for Yana.

poster Beginning (Dea Kulumbegashvili, GE 2021)
Yana, parish leader David’s spouse, would like to leave the Georgian countryside as soon as possible after the attack. David wants to persevere and prepares to arrange the funds to rebuild the church. He dismisses Yana’s fear as irrational oversensitivity.
