'ALI AND NINO' TRAILER
FALLING IN LOVE WHILE THE WORLD IS FALLING APART
Meanwhile, Fanny from Dezzy's spying squads has sent us the first trailer for ALI AND NINO epic love story with Adam Bakri and Maria Valverde

(a very weak performance judging from the trailer)!
Ali is an upper class Muslim man, whose family holds a great deal of
power in Baku, Azerbaijan. At that time, before World War One,
Azerbaijan was part of the Russian Empire. Nino, Ali's lover, is from
neighbouring Georgia and is Christian, but the two are deeply in love
and elope to the countryside. The story follows the two, who get
married, through World War One, which only sees some of Ali's friends
sent off to war. After the Russians surrender, however, conflict comes
to Baku. Ali fights the Bolsheviks with the Azerbaijani militia and Nino
helps nurse wounded soldiers during the March Days massacre in Baku.
Well, I do love Andorra and the Pyrenees... lets wait for the flick! Cheers Dez!
ReplyDeletesomething from your part of the world :)
DeleteI read the book Ali and Nino and liked it. Could be a good movie...
ReplyDeletehope you will manage to see the adaptation then!
DeleteSNOWPIERCER wasn't that awesome as a movie. I can't see it as a tv series.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was one of the best movies ever :) at least before the last half hour or so! Outstanding cast and I love me that type of sf
DeleteAnd I don't even know it. Shame on me...
Deleteutter shame. You must watch it, it was based on a comic book
DeleteSnowpiercer sounds like it might have potential as a series. I am not a fan of snow and cold, but this one has my attention.
ReplyDeletewe do love sf movies set in isolated places!
DeleteI went to Andorra about a year ago and loved it! I'm curious to see the film
ReplyDeleteNice to hear it! I bet you went with your boyfriend when he was in Europe from Brazil :)
