The film was received with great interest and applauses. Two main actors of the movie, who are also local residents and beekeepers themselves, were gifted with the modern honey extractor by the Minister of Agriculture.
“I’m impressed with the beauty of this film and it is visible that it was made with lots of dedication and love toward the region. It perfectly captures the unique nature of Ajara through showing it in all four seasons. It will play an important role in increasing awareness on our region and stimulate the development of the tourism potential of high mountainous Ajara. The tourists and those interested in spending time in nature will see the opportunities they have if coming in Ajara; enjoying the wild nature and beauty and having a great time. I think it will be good to use the shots from the movie in the promoting videos that we are showing while on official visits abroad, of course after approval from the filmmakers. I want to thank the film supporters and producers for creating such an amazing story”- Zurab Pataradze, the Chairman of Ajara Autonomous Republic.
