918 - The Color of Pomegranates (1969)

  • Summary

  • Soviet cinema at its most… spiritual? Iconoclast director Sergei Parajanov’s deeply personal exploration of the cultural echoes found in the life of 18th-century Armenian troubadour/monk Sayat-Nova uses manuscript-inspired tableaux vivants, exquisite staging, and a profoundly rich symbolic vocabulary to sneak this one past the censors. Sort of.
