The Other Bank

Life creates many obstacles for the twelve-year-old boy Tedo. Tedo belongs to the generation, which was subjected to mass displacement because of the civil war in Abkhazia, one of the most beautiful places in Georgia. The civil war took away everything Tedo had, even hope. The film tells about extraordinary internal conflict of the little boy; his thoughts, feelings, passions, sorrows and efforts to confront the difficulties. (Festival information)
