<em>'Svani'</em> does have a good story at its heart, though the way it is brought to life isn't the best; even if it is still almost watchable. The acting and the writing is what holds this back, for me anyway. I will say that the cinematography (only me that thinks so, it seems!) and score are pluses though, I dug both. Badri Jachvliani is a decent lead, though Darejan Kharshiladze is the one onscreen that I'll most remember from this 2007 film; her Martha is the most interesting character, in my opinion. They both star in a plot that does get dark, which is actually another element of this to praise in fairness.
