In a small village on the Georgian side of the Black Sea everybody knows each other. One day, villager Eliko is found hanged, disturbing the natural balance of the tranquil local community. When his granddaughter Moe returns to the village, the contrast of modern driving forces in such a non-progressive society where time has stood still becomes palpable.
Read moreMoe tries to give her grandfather an honorable funeral, but the residents have a different agenda after they discover Moe's big secret.
The world is full of small, sleepy towns such as the one we encounter in Wet Sand, where traditions and values have been suspended in time. In this touching story about sexuality, community and family, director Elene Naveriani deals with religion and attitudes to LGBT rights in Georgia.
