There Once Was a Singing Blackbird

A lighthearted, music-infused portrait of a charming, irresponsible young musician drifting through Tbilisi, balancing carefree romance and social connection with the bare minimum of artistic commitment.

Gia is a carefree young percussionist who works at a theater in Tbilisi, capital of Georgia. He lives in a small apartment with his mother. Gia spends his days flitting from friend to friend, lover to lover, avoiding any responsibility, and never staying still for five minutes. However, he always manages to arrive at the theater just in time to play the drums at the end of the ballet.
