COLOR of POMEGRANATES / Sayat Nova
"Steeped in religious iconography, The Color of Pomegranates is a deeply spiritual testament to director Sergei Parajanovs fascination with Armenian folk art and culture. It is also a controversial work, which, coupled with another of his films, Shadows of our Forgotten Ancestors, led to his arrest and imprisonment in a Soviet Gulag for four years. The Soviets insisted he was guilty of selling gold and icons illegally and committing homosexual acts. In reality, his only crime was offending the tenets of socialist realism, both in his daring surrealistic form and in his choice of subject matter. While many of the popular films of this era in Soviet cinema were largely propaganda designed to serve the ideological interests of the regime, [writer=director] Parajanov chose to focus on the ethnography and spirituality of the Ukraine, Armenia, and Georgia." From the page.
A wonderful send from one of the most precious souls I know, my dear friend, Irisrina. Thank you, for this terrific video. This is the first part of seven clips from a much acclaimed film which came out some time ago now, based on the life and poetry of the beloved Armenian poet/minstrel, Sayat-Nova.

- Gadjo dilo (1997)
I watched, "Gadgo Dilo", online yesterday and was surprised at how much I loved it. I love movies which incorporate Gypsy music, whether it is the flamenco guitars or beautiful violin and accordion playing of Eastern Europe...Latcho Drom is an excellent example of a glimpse into this music as well as the Romani origins and migration...Anyway, this was a lively, unusual and engaging film for anyone looking for a change and willing to read subtitles.
