Synopsis

Maka runs a small Georgian parcel shop in Berlin. It is a place that does not exist on Google Maps and can only be found if you specifically look for it. The store is an anchor point for Georgians who send parcels to their loved ones in their faraway homeland. Each package comes with its own story. What emerges is a small Georgia to soothe nostalgia.
