Summary
This story was inspired by the novel "Maurice" by E. M. Forster. A story with "imperative happy ending" for its two young male characters. No matter they were living a hundred years ago, no matter their relationship was an official crime in their country! And thus I decided that Merab and Irakli absolutely deserve to "still roam the greenwoods" as well. So what if few things had turned out differently in their own story? What if Merab was aware of Irakli's plans a little bit sooner? Would any of them be willing to "miss his boat" if given a chance to decide?
I didn't intend to give up any scene of the film that I consider important for the development of the plot and its characters - changing some details, however, may show some things in a slightly different light. -

Summary
Merab and Irakli are finally alone in Irakli's room but as two typical young Georgians they never learned to speak about their feelings. They don’t even know the right words. And those very few words they do know all sound inadequate or offending for that indescribably beautiful thing that they are experiencing.
And so they are left there with the only language they do know and use: rules of courtesy, rules of rivalry and silly teasing each other. There's only few types of movement accepted for two men: either of a dance or a fight. And it's all covered with the sauce of deeply internalised fear: „what will people say?”
But love will find a way.
