Description
27 Missing Kisses ?
Georgia ? 2000 ? Miami Premiere ? 96 min.
Directed by: Nana Dzhordzhadze
Carefree fourteen-year-old Sybilla arrives for summer vacation in a sleepy eastern town, and falls for middle-aged widower Alexander. She promises his fourteen-year-old son Mickey, who is besotted by her, one hundred kisses, of which he receives only seventy-three. Scripted by Irakli Kvirikadze, who knows well the absurdities of socialist life, particularly its notoriously hidden libido, 27 Missing Kisses is a tragi-comedy about sex and life in the former Soviet Union. Lauded by Moving Pictures as ?stunningly photographed by Phedon Papamichael?during the summer of the magical eclipse.?
