In Bloom (Georgian: გრძელი ნათელი დღეები; Grdzeli nateli dgheebi) is a 2013 Georgian drama film directed by Nana Ekvtimishvili and Simon Groß. It is a bildungsroman focused on the friendship between two teenage girls in 1992 after the country’s independence from the Soviet Union. The artistic style is influenced by post-communist Romanian cinema, particularly by cameraman Oleg Mutu, who also worked on 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days (2007).[1]

The film premiered at the 63rd Berlin International Film Festival, winning the C.I.C.A.E. Prize.[2] It was selected as the Georgian entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 86th Academy Awards.[3]
