“You can say anything and I will not abandon you.”

yes girl you are so [if i loved you less i might be able to talk about it more] [hands are unbearably beautiful] [i'll take care of you it's rotten work not to me not if it's you] [if you are intolerable let me be the one to tolerate you] [i could recognise him by touch alone] [i love you i want us both to eat well] [on purpose i love you on purpose] [whatever our souls are made of his and mine are the same] [i am half agony half hope] [you have bewitched me body and soul and i love love love you] [he is half of my soul as the poets say] [i'm sick of people saying that love is all a woman is fit for but i'm so lonely] [i love you most ardently] [let me stay tender hearted despite despite despite] [someone has to leave first this is a very old story there is no other version of this story] [mostly i want to be kind] [tell me how all this and love too will ruin us] [you said i killed you haunt me then] [someone somewhere can you understand me a little love me a little] [i will love you as misfortune loves orphans as fire loves innocence and as justice loves to sit and watch while everything goes wrong] [sorry about the blood in your mouth i wish it was mine] [who will come into my kitchen and be hungry for me] can we kiss now

And Then We Danced (Levan Akin, 2019)

A few months ago, as riots were going on in Tbilisi over the premiere of Levan Akin’s film, a wonderful young lady taught me a little bit about the reasons: the strange positioning of the figure of the traditional dancer in Georgian culture, and the battle for the identity of that figure fought between the LGBTQ+ activists and the radical right, both of whom take the figure as “their own”. I figured it would be a good introduction to the film, when I eventually get to see it. The truth is, the film needs no introduction.  It has its glitches. Yet overall, it is impossible not to love it - and even more the wonderful characters, both boys and girls, it introduces us to.

Oh, and kintouri again, possibly my favourite scene <3
