Returning home for the funeral of her grandmother, seventeen-year-old Ariadna must cross the unspoiled Georgian countryside to connect her grandmother’s soul with her resting body in an ancient burial custom. Traversing this exhausting and raw terrain, Ariadna is forced to confront the impact that the complex, sometimes cruel matriarch had on her not-so-distant childhood.
Reviews
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
