Leyla Beroshvili

A graduate of a sewing school arrives in a Kakhetian village. Insisting on opening a fashion house there, the energetic and good-natured Makvala makes the life of the villagers much more lively.

A dreamy girl’s first love, a boy from her village, leaves her, leaving her unable to bear the reproaches of her family and the shameful life she now lives. In the hope of starting a new life, she ventures to the city, only to find that it too will not spare her. Her futile struggle to establish herself in the city leads to her spiritual and, ultimately, physical destruction.
