Mikheil Kobakhidze

Mikheil Kobakhidze, born in Tbilisi in 1939, trained at the Moscow film institute, in the class of Sergei Gerasimov, and made only short films, all silent and burlesque, for which he composed the music himself and wrote the screenplay himself. The State Committee for Cinema eventually forbade him to direct alone. He went to France; a retrospective was devoted to him in Venice in 1996, and he took up the camera again only in 2002. Married to the actress Natela Matchavariani, he died on 13 October 2019, at the age of eighty.
