filmmaker
Ana Kvichidze was born in 1993. She was studying directing feature films at Shota Rustaveli Theatre and Film at Georgia State University. She made her MA at Ilia State University in Religion Studies. Her first narrative short film “Downpour” (14min) is inspired by Georgian folk and mythology. She has two short documentary films, one of them is “Magic recipes of Deniza and Madona” which she shot within the project “16 women for change” and it’s about two charmer friends from a Georgian village.
The second documentary "upside-down moon" is also inspired by charmers and legends from the mountains of Georgia. Now she is working on her first full-length documentary film “Heart don’t be afraid” which is a Georgian-France co-production about a 20-year-old dreamer boy, who is in search of an alternative reality in magic.
