Former wrestling champion Kakhi (Levan Tediashvili, himself a former Olympic wrestling champion) is devoted to his family. This leads him to leave his modest home in Georgia and travel to Brighton Beach, Brooklyn, to visit his son Soso. Soso is supposed to be studying medicine. Instead, Kakhi finds him living in a shabby boarding house populated by a colorful group of fellow Georgian immigrants and working for a moving company. And Soso owes $14,000 to a local mob boss.
Winner of the Best International Film Award at the 2021 Tribeca Festival, Brighton 4th is a bittersweet study of family, community and masculinity. Following the success of Blind Dates (Haifa IFF, 2014), Levan Koguashvili’s new film is infused with tragicomic moment, compassion and melancholy.
Filmography: Blind Dates (2013), Street Days (2010).
