Dividing Line, 28min., Georgia Directed by Mevlud Sabashvili A woman finds the strength to leave an abusive relationship. A woman does not find the strength to leave an abusive relationship.
What motivated you to make this film? – I was motivated by format first. I had the idea of making a film with a split frame that would show two different life-paths. When I settled on that idea, this particular story came to mind as a good fit for this format.
From the idea to the finished product, how long did it take for you to make this film? – It took about 5-6 months. Actual filming took 7 days. The longest period was post-production. Tinkering with editing and due to the format of the film, many consideration had to be made in therms of color and sound, directing viewers attention to the necessary halves of the screen.
How would you describe your film in two words!? – It’s okay.
