From award-winning director Otar Iosseliani comes an abstract and absurdist comedy with several intertwining story lines played out over several time frames, all linked by an 18th century chinaware set and a 19th century portrait. Iosselliani, one of the most criminally overlooked filmmakers here in the US, has constructed an intricate and surreal episodic Rubik's cube. (Cohen Media Group)
