CARTE BLANCHE
The day-to-day life of 10-year-old Deduna, who lives with her father in a village high up in the Georgian mountains. Dato Janelidze’s poem-like film shows some of the surprises and new experiences each day brings: Deduna teaming up with an orphan boy to liberate an ox that has come stuck in the mud; the arrival of an itinerant string quartet playing Schubert – good reason for the girl to take a day off school.
