About Desert
A group of students from Tbilisi is sent to practice with shepherds. Here, the goods are treated by old methods with the advice of doctors. Students begin to use new methods of treatment. They are fiercely opposed by the doctors. One of them also commits evil deeds: he calls a sheep suffering from anthrax in the kolmeurneo flock. The sheep dies. Practitioners are trying their best to save the flock of sheep. Vaccination will be carried out immediately. Timely measures will yield results
Directed by Nikoloz Sanishvili, Desert leans on a strong ensemble — Arkadi Khintibidze, Kira Andronikashvili, Shalva Khoperia — 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 history titles of 1932.
