01 / THE STORY

A little about the film.

Manana (Ia Shughliashvili), a 50-year-old woman, decides to leave her family, husband, children, and parents. Her act to abandon her family is considered shameful in her society. The reasons and rationale for her decision are initially and largely unknown to her family, and seem to remain a mystery to them throughout the entire story. Her perspective, however, is slowly disclosed to the audience. Manana’s decision to challenge the religious expectations of women in her community gives “My Happy Family” an enlightened feminist streak, owing much to its central performance.
