Of kids and sea
In a small seaside town, a children’s park, crafted from scraps of furniture, never sleeps and always waits for eager guests who never arrive.
In the quiet, stagnant port city of Poti, where the Rioni River meets the sea, there is an unusual space. With old dolls sitting on tall poles alongside hand-painted birds and dolphins, an elderly man is trying to create a park for children and enrich their lives.
This seaside park transforms throughout the day, assuming various roles: sometimes it serves as a gym, sometimes it’s a space for discussing politics and current affairs, and occasionally it becomes a hub for backgammon enthusiasts. Once in a while children also appear. However, at night, when the dolls are left alone, the park takes on a mystical atmosphere.
