Fridrik Thór Fridriksson Presents: The Color of Pomegranates
Sayat Nova / Sergej Paradžanov / SSSR 1969 / 79 min. / DCP
One of the world cinema’s masterpieces. Instead of a traditional biographical story about the Armenian poet, Sergei Parajanov chose a highly stylized approach with an emphasis on visually rich dramaturgy of colours, costumes, and props. Each shot is carefully composed and looks like an independent piece of work.
