Guri and his mother, Sanata, have been living in a mountainous village of Georgia, with a dog – Tuia. The visual observational journey vividly shows motherhood’s bond, image of everlasting, pure, endearing union. Meanwhile, living in harmony, what happens if a third person intrudes in their tacit relationship. The young lady’s rapid appearance arouses questions – to what direction their life will turn, what will be transformed, lost, or gained.

Ostende – La Mer – Un Jour is a kind of graphic novel which comes down to showing pictures and then a voice-over of the people who are photographed tell what we see.

In a few brief moments in the life of a young girl, we see her drawing on the window with a marker as she sings and chats, and walking along the main road on her way to meet her friend, meanwhile surrounded by cars and trucks racing dangerously close to her.
