Sergei Parajanov was one of those rare individuals for whom freedom was a necessity and a way of life 🕊️
He knew no boundaries - neither national, nor political, ideological, or in genre, which is why practically all of his works- whether films or moving picture galleries - which later brought him worldwide fame, were perceived by Soviet censorship as a direct threat and resulted in a witch-hunt.
Persecution, bans, prison... And work that never stopped for a minute. Unable to make films, he created collages: remarkably elegant works, made from someone else’s discarded junk.
This is no longer just the love of freedom, it’s an intolerance of not being free.
