Blackbird Blackbird Blackberry

The title might lead you to expect a film about discontinued stealth bombers or telecommunications technologies. Far from it. This is a still-life from rural Georgia, timeless apart from mobile phones, modern medicine and some of the younger cast members.

The film is strange and beguiling with a remarkable performance by Eka Chavleishvili. She plays Etero, a middle-aged single woman obliged by events to look closely at how content with her lot she actually is. Chavleishvili's face and body are astonishingly expressive.

Even so, 'Blackbird Blackbird Blackberry' feels longer than the 110mins advertised. As Etero struggles to come to terms with her life - past, present and future - you can't help thinking that her catty friends would have done a better job in the editing suite.
