Maka Gogaladze’s debut feature looks at generational differences in the context of Georgia’s education system and emphasis on collectivism The scars imprinted on impressionable young minds can never fully fade away. Aiming her lens at a rocky beach thrashed by crashing waves, Maka Gogaladze opens her intimate film with a painful anecdote from her adolescent years.

With today's news, I thought I'd share this great program: “When I was growing up in the hills of East Tennessee, I knew my dreams would come true. I know there are children in your community with their own dreams. They dream of becoming a doctor or an inventor or a minister. Who knows, maybe there is a little girl whose dream is to be a writer and singer. The seeds of these dreams are often found in books and the seeds you help plant in your community can grow across the world.” Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50234474 Points: 211 # Comments: 35
