Gamodi

Synopsis

In Tbilisi, Georgia, an apartment tower sits in a liminal state, its construction halted at a critical juncture by the global pandemic. In its shadowy alcoves, Viktor, a legendary drag queen, and Tarzan, a teenage drifter, have embraced their collective purgatorial languor, subsisting on brief instances of intimacy. While intermittent television reports apprise them of developments from the outside world, it’s increasingly unclear whether they’re still inhabiting this plane of existence.
