‘And Then We Danced’ is such a special film, crafted with love and necessity, honest in its intentions and pure in heart. I found myself totally swept up in it and, by the end, my heart burst with love for it. This will easily go down as an LBGTIQ+ classic; how extraordinary is it for Georgia to have such a film as part of its cinematic legacy, not just for its craft but for what it represents. ‘And Then We Danced’ is the past and the present at odds, with the future ultimately at stake, rendered in flesh and bone by the powerhouse debut performance of Levan Gelbakhiani, easily one of the best of the year. Levan Akin has made a remarkable film, a passionate dance for love, for country, for tradition, for art and for survival.
