“What to Do With All This Love” @ DOK Leipzig 2019
Marita Stocker’s intimate film about life at the Paliashvili Music School Tbilisi, Georgia, has been selected for this year’s DOK Leipzig Festival.
After having received the Deutscher Kamerapreis (German Camera Award) for Mitja Hagelüken’s wonderful and intimate cinematography, “What To Do With All This Love” has been selected for this year’s edition of DOK Leipzig International Documentary and Animation Film Festival, where the film will be screened twice.
Georgia is a multi-ethnic state in the Caucasus, hovering between the past and the future. Up upon a hill, the Paliashvili Music School for gifted children looks out over Tbilisi. The plaster is crumbling, hardly any instrument can be tuned, and many teachers are so old they could be the pupils’ great-grandparents. While they seek that spark of inspiration, the Headmaster fights for a new building and the students pursue their calling in life. “What to Do With All This Love” is a film about a place lost in time and threatening disappearance – a film about growing up and aging, about great dreams and the art of improvisation.
