Uncle Vakho's Dream

Vakho is an elderly man, who lives a frugal and lonely life in an abandoned village high up in the mountains of Georgia. With only goats for company, taking them to pasture became his everyday ritual. Vakho is haunted by an old memory of the prophetic dream that foreshadowed tragic events, for which he punishes himself by living in isolation. In Joanna Rój’s captivating documentary, he shares his reflections resulting from his nearly 50 years spent in contemplative seclusion. (Elbe Dock)
