"Coming from the rich contemporary Georgian cinema, 'Wet Sand' follows a more conventional linear narrative structure. The story takes place in a small town on the Black Sea coast of Georgia, a tight-knit community where everyone knows each other. Until a man is found hanged and his granddaughter comes to organize his funeral, uncovering a web of lies and secrets about her grandfather's love life. It's a narrative full of mystery and intrigue, tackling the entrenched intolerance in small, closed communities, contrasting with the beauty and authenticity of love."
