Title: Holy Smear
Dir.: Nita Kvirikadze
What is it about?
Holy Smear is a darkly comic, surreal, and emotionally tense short film set in a decaying Georgian hospital, where faith, superstition, and collapsing institutions collide. The film combines absurdity, spiritual symbolism, and grounded human drama to explore how people search for meaning when systems fail.
Shot in real Georgian hospital locations, the film embraces a gritty, atmospheric visual style inspired by Eastern European cinema, religious iconography, and chaotic realism.
