Description
Summary:Nicolas is an artist and a filmmaker who asked nothing more but to be able to express himself freely. A freedom which caused many problems ... The "ideologists" wanted to silence him during his debuts in Georgia. They believed that his work was not in line with the current rules. Nicolas faced their tenacity and had to leave his home country for France, land of freedom and democracy. But this state of grace didn't last long.
Nicolas est un artiste, un cinéaste qui ne demande rien tant que de pouvoir s'exprimer en toute liberté. Une liberté source de bien des problèmes ... Dès ses débuts en Géorgie, les " idéologues " veulent le réduire au silence, considérant que son œuvre n'est pas conforme aux règles en vigueur. Face à leur détermination, Nicolas quitte son pays d'origine pour la France - terre de liberté et de démocratie. Mais l'état de grâce sera de courte durée.
