SONG ABOUT A FLOWER
Homage
“The title SAPOVNELA means ‘a flower that nobody can find’. We are presented the film without a translation (the censors imposed the text on us back on us, but the film got banned all the same – due to the ending). It was my first attempt: I wanted to link up music and colour. It’s also a tale of Mikhail Mamulashvili, an elderly horticulturalist who created wonderful compositions with the plants in his small garden.”
