About The Benefactor
An elderly, lonely employee of the Giga Museum, has been saving money all his life. He decided to give the accumulated amount to a family with many children in need, but people had become unaccustomed to noble and selfless actions. With their distrust, they cause undeserved pain to a kind person.
Directed by Valerian Kvachadze, The Benefactor leans on a strong ensemble — Gogi Gegechkori, Bichiko Andronikashvili, Badri Begalishvili — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1988.
