So, Sergei Parajanov, The Exile is a fascinating dive into the mind of a filmmaker who really pushed boundaries. The documentary, while it feels a bit informal at times, captures Parajanov’s essence as he chats with Fotos Lamprinos. You get this raw look at his life and the cultural landscape during Gorbachev’s Perestroika that was quite significant in the USSR.

Visually, it has a certain rough charm, fitting for someone who was both a victim and a master of the system he navigated. The atmosphere is reflective, layered with nostalgia and an unvarnished honesty about art and life.
