YOU’RE NOT YOU

Friday, October 10th, 2014

Genre: Drama

Release Year: 2014

Runtime: 152

Language: English

Director: George C. Wolfe

Plot: Academy Award® winner Hilary Swank (Conviction, Million Dollar Baby) and rapidly rising star Emmy Rossum (“Shameless”) intertwine in You’re Not You, a surprisingly funny, defiantly unsentimental and starkly moving portrait of a high-stakes friendship between two women – one literally in need of a voice, the other discovering the full power of hers.
Kate (Swank) is a suave, successful classical pianist just diagnosed with ALS (commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease). Bec (Rossum) is a brash college student and would-be rock singer who can barely keep her wildly chaotic affairs, romantic and otherwise, together. Yet, when Bec takes a job assisting Kate, just as Kate’s marriage to Evan (Josh Duhamel) hits the skids, both women come to rely on what becomes an unconventional, sometimes confrontational and fiercely honest bond. As meticulous, willful Kate begins to rub off on whirlwind, spontaneous Bec – and vice versa – both women find themselves facing down regrets, exploring new territory and expanding their ideas of who they want to be.

Release Year: 2014

Runtime: 150

Language: English

Director: Tom Walters

Plot: Eight years in the making, BOTSO follows the astonishing life of Wachtang “Botso” Korisheli, a musician, sculptor, and teacher born in the former Soviet Republic of Georgia. As a young boy, Korisheli was affectionately held by Josef Stalin not long before Stalin’s regime ordered the execution of his father, popular actor Platon Korisheli. Remarkably, Botso was allowed 20 minutes to see his father one last time, a meeting in which Platon communicated essential words of wisdom that still inspire Botso as he continues to teach at the age of 92. After enduring hardships under Stalin, Botso was captured by the Nazis, forced to march across Poland for six months, then was placed into prison camps until the war ended.

Eventually arriving to America with nothing, Botso furthered his musical training and became a beloved teacher in a small fishing village in California. Through his unique way of teaching, Korisheli went on to inspire generations of students, including some of the world’s premier musical artists. Former student and six-time Grammy Award winner Kent Nagano still refers to Botso as “my musical father”.

Filmed partly in the Republic of Georgia, the documentary also explores the rich culture of the ancient country that shaped Botso’s perspective.
