A beautiful adaptation of a traditional Russian folk tale, about a young woman who must rescue a mysterious prince from an evil queen. The making of The Falcon was a historic event: the first co-production ever between Soviet Georgia and American filmmakers. The locations are all real, including the breathtaking Caucasus Mountain of Georgia, places Western audiences had never before seen.
The documentary is dedicated to those who fell in the First Chechen War. Based on archival footage, the film offers an overview of the 20th century, highlighting its great and small figures — both victims and executioners. Political events are given an additional dimension through their interweaving with biblical motifs.
