## Synopsis

My Grandmother is a 1929 Soviet Georgian comedy directed by Kote Mikaberidze. Filmed in 1928, the film was banned as "anti-Soviet" upon its 1929 release, shelved for 39 years, and not widely screened again until its 1976 restoration by Leila Gordeladze. The film is noted for its Expressionist sets by designer Irakli Gamrekeli and its satirical attitude towards bureaucracy and red tape.
