Plot
Temo Re is an adaptation of Temo Rekhviashvili's debut novel Courier's Tales. The film is constructed as a black-and-white photomontage and combines elements of fiction and documentary cinema.
Temo is an actor who also works as a courier. Over the course of a single day, he travels across Tbilisi on a moped and performs in a suburban theatre in the evening. The poverty, injustice, corruption, and alienation he encounters during the day gradually transform into disturbing visions that haunt him at night.
