12 year old Lazare spends his days in his tree-house, leading a diary with the central question: “Who am I?”. He is a natural artist, always painting pictures that show how he sees the world. When the war in Ukraine started, he got busy collecting and selling scrap metal to donate to Ukrainian people. Plus, his artwork about the war made the local exhibition.
15 year old Giorgi is a dreamer with a big imagination. He's crazy about anime and Japanese culture. He daydreams about going on adventures far away from home. Even though he's still young, he's really curious about politics and how it affects the world around him. Giorgi believes that people, like birds, should be free to travel without restrictions.
A 47 year old dedicated housewife and the family magician, stretching their limited income to keep the family well-fed and the boys well-dressed. Nino is haunted by memories of the war and dreams of her children experiencing a peaceful world. She doesn’t want Giorgi and Lazare to leave Georgia for Europe, she wants Georgia to be in Europe.
As a 64 year old retired engineer, Soso carries the wisdom and weight of his years. Every sentence and gesture he makes is filled with meaning, as he wants his kids to have the best memory of him. He wished the boys to remain connected to their land and the blueberry farm is his gift ensuring that they have a stable and secure future.
Luciano the cat - named after Giorgi’s favorite opera singer Pavarotti, and Jesse, the family dog, along with ducks, chickens, and turkeys, add to the lively and loving atmosphere of their home.
Originally born in Georgia, 5 year old Elene and her family had to emigrate to Brussels due to the civil war. After doing Master's in Eastern Europe & Caucasus Studies at the Université Libre de Bruxelles and researching the representation of war and the narratives of identity in Georgian modern cinema, Elene moved back to Tbilisi in 2016 to learn Georgian and rediscover her country. Blueberry Dreams is her first feature-length documentary.
We are reaching out to help the protagonists of our film, Giorgi, Lazare and their parents Soso and Nino in Georgia to keep their blueberry farm!

Led by the good-hearted father Soso, a family of four starts a blueberry farm to secure their future together. But with a home in northern Georgia, their village is close to the troubled border with the Russian-backed region of Abkhazia, where conflicts have been rumbling for 30 years. Soso is a retired engineer, but together with his wife Nino and their sons Giorgi and Lazare, he throws himself into the ‘Plant the Future’ programme set up by the Georgian authorities to stabilize the area. In the midst of their daily lives, the family navigates between hardship, joy and contemplation of a different future.
Today, the Georgian government has broken its promise to the people and re-introduced a Russian-style law that labels independent media and civil society "carriers of foreign influence." While the government tries to tear Georgia away from Europe - our country's natural home, families like Soso's are working hard to secure a better future in one of Georgia's most volatile regions.
