Ashik Kerib Directed by Sergei Parajanov + Dodo Abashidze 1988 Azerbaijan / Georgia

[allerod]

Ashik Kerib

Parajanov returns to Soviet Movie Club, this time with his last completed work. Based on a short story by Lermontov, Ashik Kerib follows a minstrel who, after falling in love with a daughter of a rich merchant, wanders for 1001 nights in search of fame and fortune, hoping to gain the father's approval and marry his beloved.

Will he succeed? Will we be able to comprehend the plot this time? One thing is sure: whatever happens will be insanely pretty and aesthetic. And the inclusion of Azerbaijan folklore is bound to be interesting.

If you want to come with us on this journey, come to hyperbeam on Saturday, 06/05, at 10pm Moscow / 9pm CEST / 3pm EDT. I will reblog this post with a link 15 minutes before we start :~)

Ashik Kerib (1988)

[blankdeadsea]

Ashik Kerib (Georgian: აშიკ-ქერიბი) ("strange ashik") is a 1988 Soviet art film directed by Dodo Abashidze from Georgia and Sergei Parajanov from Armenia that is based on the short story of the same name by Mikhail Lermontov. It was Parajanov's last completed film and was dedicated to his close friend Andrei Tarkovsky, who had died two years previously. The film also features a detailed portrayal of Azerbaijani culture.

An ashik wants to marry his beloved, but her father opposes since he is poor and he expects rich prospects for his 'daughter from heaven'. She vows to wait for him for a thousand days and nights until he comes back with enough money to impress her father. He sets out on a journey to gain wealth and encounters many difficulties, but with the help of a saintly horseman, he returns to his beloved on the 1001st day and they are able to marry.

The entire story is told in a way of Azerbaijan folklore with music and colour playing a key role. Dialogue is minimal and scripts are used to narrate the plot changes. The director included intentional anachronisms such as the use of submachine guns and a movie camera.

Parajanov's previous three major films Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors, The Color of Pomegranates, The Legend of Suram Fortress were colourful illustrations of Ukrainian, Armenian and Georgian culture respectively. Ashik Kerib similarly explores traditional Azerbaijani clothes, music, dance, art and customs.
