Summary
Filmmaker Emily Railsback and sommelier Jeremy Quinn journey to the Republic of Georgia to explore the renewal of 8,000-year-old winemaking traditions all but lost during the period of Soviet rule. Depicting the rural family life and ancestral legacies of modern Georgian winemakers through intimate iPhone photography, Railsback reveals an intricate and resilient society that has survived foreign invasion and repeated attempts to eradicate its culture. Against odds, the revival of these traditional Georgian winemaking techniques is the central force driving this proudly independent nation to forget its 21st century identity.
