George Babluani

Tension simmers until it reaches an explosive boil in Géla Babluani’s taut, atmospheric noir. Etched in stark monochrome, this story of a hard-on-his-luck Georgian immigrant and his struggles to support his family arches with unexpected twists. A triumph of diabolical filmmaking imagination.

In this modern-day retelling of Ovid's Metamorphoses, a young girl named Europa is seduced by a magnetic stranger named Jupiter and embarks on a mythical journey to a land of powerful gods.
