Sergei Paradjanov's celebrated dreamlike masterpiece paints an astonishing portrait of the 18th century Armenian poet Sayat Nova the 'King of Song'. Paradjanov's aim was not a conventional biography but a cinematic expression of his work resulting in an extraordinary visual poem. Key moments in his subject's life are illustrated through a series of exquisitely orchestrated tableaux filled with rich colour and stunning iconography each scene a celluloid painting alive with stylised movement. One of cinema's most revered and beautiful films The Colour of Pomegranates is a unique and rewarding experience that haunts the memory long after viewing.
