Plot

In February 1921, when the Soviet Red Army invaded independent Georgia, the government decided to collect all the treasury property and museum treasures and flee to France in emigration. They entrusted Ekvtime Takaishvili to collect the treasure and appointed him as a guard. The film's story is about hard life and activities of Ekvtime Takaishvili (actor - Rezo Chkhikvishvili), which mainly includes the history of the protection of the treasury in France during the emigration period in 1921-1945 and how Ekvtime Takaishvili returned it. The film is accompanied by the love story of Ekvtime and his charming wife and companion Nino Poltaratskaya (actress - Ana Tsereteli). Ekvtime himself defended the Georgian treasure from the world famous museums, rich collectors, court disputes, criminals and fascists to endure all the temptations and never deviated from the supreme moral principles and love of the Motherland, what is eternal in this world. In 2002 the Georgian Holly Church canonized Ekvtime Takaishvili and named him as „Man of God“.[1]
