The Color of Pomegranates (USSR / Armenia)

 

Poetical actions and shapes

 

Director: Sergei Paradjanov

Cast: Sofiko Chiaureli   Melkop Alekyan   Vilen Galstyan

Footage: 90min

Year: 1969

This film bases in part on the life of the 18th-century Armenian poet-monk, Savat Nova. We can find poems of the poet instead of his image. There is hardly any dialogues and only asides and soliloquies.

We seem unable to generalize it literarily. Even every one can give his own annotation.
