Logline
Taking advantage of May Kirbishi’s love, Yashar Badishi tries to uncover the set of directions of making the Kirbishi clan mysterious drug with the aim of selling the recipe to wealthy foreigners, Helen Meyers and Alfred Antopoulos.
Idea of the movie novel
Apollonius of Rhodes, along with other Ancient authors, in his Argonautica wrote about Georgian remedial herbs and their administration. It was also known that in the lowlands of Colchis Hecate Garden (650 B.C.) was arranged where more than forty remedial herbs were grown. The very word medicine derives from the name of healer Medea, daughter of Aeetes, King of Colchis...
In the depths of Ancient Georgian folk medicine numerous healers from close clans emerged who developed their own remedies. The examples of these cases are as follows: Turmanidze ointment; Askurava‘s treatment of bone fractures by means of light dressings and ointment without plaster; family cream of the Berulava family; medicine of Nachkebia family...
Here is a fragment from the poem Kikola’s Story by Akaki Tsereteli:
I am a true Imeretian, born in Imereti,
Turmanidze is my family name, highly praised for healing,
I have concocted an ointment in the immortality well,
But I hide this mystery with great care.
The history records of the family teach us to cover it
And to prevent any desciple from other clan.
Outline
The oldest family of the Laz people from Sarpi, the Kirbishi family, possesses the recipe of making indispensable medicine curing people. The Red Flower of Medea is the herb used by the Kirbishi family in making indespansable ointment, as follows: For several centuries they have went to sea on their felucca sailing boat and grew this herb in the earthware pot on the deck to prevent disclosure of the mystery of their drug.
Besides, medicine is made with the arrangement of mysterious rituals, and to that end, it is necessary to visit Romanian seaport of Constanta, the hamlet of Makriali in the Laz district of Turkey, and Gonio Fortress, the venues where the King of Colchis, Aeetes, laid to rest the parts of the remains of Absyrtus killed and fractured by Medea and Jason.
Yashar Badishi tries to uncover the mystery of this drug aiming at selling this recipe to the wealthy foreigners, Helen Mayers and Alfred Antopoulos, and to that end he goes to any lengths using close relationship with the Kirbishi family and even love of May Kirbishi. This is the reason of the rage from our Lord expressed through storms and gales.
Next year May Kirbishi having lost her relatives again goes to the sea on Kirbishi sail felucca and continues time-honored business of the family – and as a backdrop one can hear a song of their ancestors Helessa. This movie novel was conceived as animated drawings of the gifted Laz artist, Hasan Helimishi. Helessa tells us on the mystery that is part of your soul to be saved even at the expense of your life.
