Pastorale

In Pastorale, a group of young musicians arrives in a mountain village to relax and rehearse. The film portrays the stark contrast between their modern music and the traditional songs of the local peasants, highlighting a cultural divide. The story unfolds against a backdrop of rural life that deviates from the idyllic image often associated with it.

This film is a poignant examination of how cultural shifts impact community bonds. The narrative reveals a sad tale of disconnection, as the peasants no longer sing their beautiful old songs, and the musicians find their music lost on the villagers. The exploration of these themes makes Pastorale a significant entry in Georgian cinema and a reflection of its social landscape during the 1970s.
