In our review the German film that won a Silver Bear for Maren Eggert’s lead performance we said “Within all the ups and downs, the flaws and wins, Schrader’s “ I’m Your Man” remain centered on Alma’s need to understand herself. I’m Your Man is a playful romance about relationships, love, and what it means to be human in the modern age.

After making arrangements to cover for his brother’s gambling debts, Kakhi departs his humble home in the Republic of Georgia to pay a visit to his son Soso ( Giorgi Tabidze) in outer Brooklyn. And on the other hand, it behaves like it doesn’t care if the audience is engaging in healthy introspection and explicitly shows what it thinks of that complacency.” Related to Must-See Movies at 52nd IFFI Goa, 2021 – Bad Luck Banging Or Loony Porn : ‘HIFF’ Review – A Romanian Satire For The Agesĭirector: Levan Koguashvili | Language: Georgian | Runtime: 96 Minutesįormer wrestling champion Kakhi ( Levan Tediashvili, himself a former Olympic wrestler) always has his family on his conscience, and in Brighton 4th, this leads him on a cross-continental journey.
