Wiki.
Beginning (Georgian: დასაწყისი, dasats’q’isi, Dasatskisi, working title: Naked Sky) is a 2020 Georgian-French drama film, directed by Déa Kulumbegashvili, about the wife of a Jehovah's Witness leader who becomes disillusioned with her life inside a patriarchal religious community after its place of worship is firebombed by violent extremists. It was in the official selection of the Cannes Film Festival, and had its premiere at the 2020 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), where it won the FIPRESCI Prize. It was subsequently screened and won awards at the San Sebastián International Film Festival, and the Adelaide Film Festival.
Beginning received mostly favourable reviews from critics, with the direction compared to that of Austrian director Michael Haneke.
