Synopsis
In 1993, after a war in Abkhazia, Georgia known as the Abkhaz-Georgian Conflict, thousands of ethnic Georgian families sought refuge in the decaying Soviet sanatoriums nestled in the town of Tskaltubo, in western Georgia. This poignant documentary unveils the untold stories of these displaced individuals as they try to build a new life amid the haunting ruins, revealing not only their resilience and camaraderie, but also the profound transformation of the sanatoriums from symbols of health and luxury to havens of survival and unity. Iamze, 81, and Nikusha, 12, are awaiting promised government housing, all the while being indelibly shaped by the echoes of war.
