The Plea (Mol'ba) (RUSCICO)Total in Box: 1 Release Date: 1969 SKU 204000012465 Visitors reviews Based on the poems “Aluda Ketelauri” and “The Guest and the Host” by the
classic of Georgian literature Vazha Pshavela
This film opens Tengiz Abuladze’s trilogy (“The Plea”, “The Wishing Tree”, “Repentance”), which discusses the subject of common human values using original national material.
The death of heroes, the knights of truth and good, leads the Poet to the conclusion that the evil is invincible. Exhausted by struggle and privations, the Poet lays down his arms. He is visited then by all of his favorite heroes. They put out candles by dipping them into a beer cup – a ritual Khevsuri gesture meaning renunciation. And only after seeing what misfortune and harm the rejection of fighting the evil results in, the Poet takes up arms again. Awards:
