Rezo

An Animated Documentary on Screenwriter, Artist and Puppeteer Rezo Gabriadze

The rich inner world of the renowned Georgian screenwriter, artist and puppeteer Rezo Gabriadze is as fantastic as the animation into which he has poured this story of his life. Rezo's director son, Leo Gabriadze, who previously made the hit horror film Unfriended (2014), leaves it to his father to talk about a life suffused with magical thinking.

The movie is an autobiographical animated documentary questioning ideas of deep humanity, kindness and survival during the uneasy times after the 2nd World War.

Winner of Best Animated Feature Film at the Asia Pacific Screen Awards.

"Rezo's hand-drawn sketches are brought to life through computer animation, with an effectively dark palette, and Rezo's narration is wise and soothing." - G. Allen Johnson, San Francisco Chronicle
