Alex, a security guard of an underwater nuclear laboratory, embarks on a pursuit after a strange intruder. To his surprise, the intruder turns out to be none other than his deceased brother, speaking an entirely unfamiliar foreign language as he flees. Alex's relentless pursuit leads him into a perplexing loop between parallel realities.
The film was created by Georgian and Ukrainian war refugees who teamed up to make an allegorical short story about the existential symbols of life, time, and reality, where amidst the chaos of infinite unexpected alternative realities, the hero needs find a path back to his own.
ZVIAD (AD) TSIKOLIA (KOL)
The director of the film is a refugee from Abkhazia (occupied by Russia) and represents a group of people who were or are victims of Russian Aggression.
The idea for the film was born after Russia's attack on Ukraine. Georgian and Ukrainian war refugees united around the idea of a film about the war without showing it. They just wanted to show emotional journey of a person in chaos. Where time and logic, space and reality almost everything around you becomes an unnatural struggle through for existence.
