Irakli Kvirikadze:
life stories for the son and all of us Automatic translate

MOSCOW. The publishing house of AST published a book by the scriptwriter and director Irakli Kvirikadze, “The Boy Walking the Wild Duck.”

Soulful, warm, poetic - epithets suitable for any of the Georgian films of our childhood and striving for a happy future for youth. They let themselves in as if hospitable, hospitable owners, warming them up, giving hope and positive. One of those who was involved in this miracle is the author of a book published by the Editorial Office of Elena Shubina. Irakli Kvirikadze as a screenwriter and director was involved in the creation of such films as “Moon Papa”, “Pitcher”, “1001 recipe for a cook in love”, “Anara Town”, “Robinsonade, or My English Grandfather”, and many others. Business and friends call him to Moscow and Paris, then to Tbilisi and Los Angeles.

In the stories that make up the patchwork of the story of The Boy, the truth is fancifully interwoven with fiction, populated by countless characters, touching and sinister, notorious and not so famous. A brilliant and witty storyteller gives stories from his eventful life primarily to his little son, who was born in London under the New Year’s chime of Big Ben chimes. The three-year-old Heraclius, who was first wanted to be called Karl, still has a “full-scale acquaintance” with his father. But Kvirikadze Sr. decided to generously share funny and sad stories, some of which formed the basis of the scripts, and with us.
