Temo Re

Temo Re (Georgian: თემო რე) is a Georgian film by Anka Gujabidze. The film premiered in 2025 at International Film Festival Rotterdam, where it won two awards: the Tiger Short Award and the KNF Award

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.
