Otar Josseliani (Riga) | interesting place, memorial plaque

Latvia / Riga / Riga / Mārstaļu Street, 14
 interesting place, memorial plaque

This multimedia honorary plaque on Mārstaļu iela 14 was made by Kirils Pantelejevs in 2004 on the occasion of Josseliani's 70th birthday and reads (in Latvian and Georgian):

"Otar Iosseliani, honorary guest of the International Film Forum Arsenals, walked by this building, stopped, and drank a glass of Ahasheni".

The plaque is designed to look like an improvised thrush’s cage, a reference to Josseliani’s film Once There Lived a Singing Thrush. Every day at 12.00, 15.00, and 18.00, the plaque comes alive to the song Daigvines, which plays from the cage.
