It's fine but it's just a convoluted mish-mash of specific myths and folklores which most probably aren't intelligible to you, unless you're from the Caucasus or something.
Nice pseud-thread though.

Love it.
First saw it used in a Juno Reactor music video.

>>16104119
It’s a poetic portrayal of a poet and full of meanings that might only reveal themselves to locals or native Armenians, but when you discover them or are told of them, it makes the experience all the better.
A mish-mash is haphazard nonsense. This is not that. It’s too good for /tv/

Neat movie but “pure” kino for me is Nostos: Il Ritorno. I had such a strong feeling of deja vu in certain scenes that I swear I had been there in a previous life and I’ve never had that feeling before or since

How do I escape the current of culture? Every thing I think I found on my own I suddenly find that a shit ton of other people have suddenly taken an interest in it. Don't say pick media at random.

Is this based on the Nart Sagas? I have been reading through them, would be interested in seeing how people have adapted them over the years.

It is one of my favorite films. Parajanov's other famous movie, Shadows of our Forgotten Ancestors, is very good, although not as visually stunning.

>>16105158
You also like Daisies, do you not?
At least we have similar tastes in cinema, because other than this...

I recommend Birds, Orphans and Fools, by Jakubisko, in case you haven't yet watched it. It's not as radical as Daisies, but contains much that is similar in its form, specially when it comes to the more or less anarchic sequence of the images and the heavy use of music.

The best mixture of cinema with music that I have ever seen is probably Carl Orff's Carmina Burana filmed by Ponnelle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gj-tBVq61as.. It is more theatrical than cinematic, but every shot could be a rococo painting, and Ponnelle has now and then some very beautiful conceptions, that clearly suggest a mind educated in poetry even more than in painting.

Nah, it's loosely based on the life of 18th century Armenian poet/bard Sayat Nova.
