Letters to Max
Eric Baudelaire, France, 2014, DCP, 103m
Paris, June 29th 2012
Dear Max,
Are you there?
Eric
“Abkhazia is something of a paradox: a country that exists, in the physical sense of the word (a territory with borders, a government, a flag, and a language), yet it has no legal existence because for almost 20 years it was not recognized by any other nation state. And so Abkhazia exists without existing, caught in a liminal space, a space in between realities. Which is why my letter to Max was something of a message in a bottle thrown at sea, a wink to the world of Alfred Jarry’s Ubu Roi that Maxim Gvinjia seems to inhabit. But my letter arrived, and somehow fiction has penetrated the real.” —Eric Baudelaire
