Favourites of the Moon
The story focuses on two objects, an uncommon collection of 18th-century Limoges china, and also a 19th century aristocratic picture. As these products are passed, offered, or stolen from one character to another, a giddy round dance of excess begins to take shape, one which recommends that if background doesn't repeat itself, it definitely rhymes. Together with co-writer Gérard Brach, whose other co-writing debts include Repulsion as well as Tess, Otar Iosseliani uses a feather-light touch to subject the futility of course and also caste, making a bagatelle of the concerns of abundant as well as poor alike.
