Otar Iosseliani: Winter Song [Chant d´Hiver] [OmeU] FR, 2015, R: Otar Iosseliani mit Rufus, Amiran Amiranashvili, Mathias Jung, 117 Min

Iosseliani tells a story that revolves around the French Revolution and the closing of refugee camps in contemporary Europe, down-and-outs and weapons dealers in Paris, war and friendship, and how all these things fits together, narrated in his inimitable style, at once nimble and melancholy. CHANT D'HIVER is a powerful late work of impressive freshness and considerable aesthetic freedom.
