COMMOTION

Homage

The city of pleasure is home to a culture of excessive eating – everything revolves around diners, restaurants, cooking competitions and Georgian cuisine. Makro, a famous theatre actress whose glory days are long past, returns to this setting, with the desire that her spiritually might influence it in some way. She opens an art gallery in one of the local eateries, which draws the ire of local restaurant owners – though the city's inhabitants are delighted. Celebrated by audiences and critics alike, COMMOTION distinguishes itself through its ethnographic use of music and dance from the Kakheti region as well as its abundant humour.
