On September 15, 16 and 17, Akhmeteli theater in Tbilisi, Georgia, will present the play “Confession: I am Sergo Parajanov”, based on the latest script of the world-famous film director Sergei Parajanov.

The official page of the theater notes that the performance is dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the birth of the great master.

The greatest Armenian film director of the 20th century Sergey Parajanov was born on January 9, 1924. He lived and worked in Tbilisi.

In the last years of his life, Parajanov decided to make an autobiographical film called “Confession”. Unfortunately, he passed away before he could make his many ideas come true.

There are about 20 films dedicated to Parajanov, and since 1991 a museum has been operating in Yerevan, where his drawings, collages, miniatures and various utensils transported from the Tbilisi apartment are exhibited.
