A Room of My Own

The seemingly introverted and innocent Tina has hardly studied, has never had a job, and has all her belongings in her suitcase when she moves in with the vital party girl Megi in Tbilisi. She wants to stay there for a few weeks while her boyfriend finishes a work assignment. When the plans fall through, she has to get used to Megi’s debauched lifestyle while navigating her identity and bittersweet freedom.

Tina has always been reliant on family and men, but Megi is an independent woman that appears free and confident in all situations. What starts out as a confrontation turns into an intimate friendship where questions of identity, freedom, and boundaries are in a state of flux. How do you react when you lose everything you know? How far outside your comfort zone are you willing to go? How can you win your freedom in the shadows of traditional family structures and narrow gender roles?
