In Bloom

2013's In Bloom tells the story of fourteen-year-old Eka (Lika Babluani). Her father is in prison for murder, but Eka still clings to the old Soviet cigarettes and passport he's left behind. It's the early nineties, and despite her country's new independence the threat of violence looms in the background. A captivating portrait of urban dissonance and burgeoning factions of nationalism against the tale of a teenage girl growing up in post-Soviet Union Georgia, In Bloom eschews the traditional clichés of the coming-of-age genre to poetically depict the confused identity of a country in a state of transition.
