The Rainbowmaker

Datho has been innocent in prison for many years. When he comes home nobody wants him. His angelic wife Elene has fun with a fire-eater. The two children imagined the father as a hero, not as a sorrowful knight. But everything changes when Datho can freeze his enemies in the bathtub or he calls for rain so that they remain stuck in the mud.

Directed by Nana Jorjadze, The Rainbowmaker leans on a strong ensemble — Merab Ninidze, Anja Antonowicz, Chulpan Khamatova — 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 romance titles of 2008.
