'The Mountain Speaks to the Sea' explores Tekla Aslanishvili’s experimental film trilogy, which examines how ports, railways, and smart city projects function as technologies of citizenship and sovereignty. It reveals the disruptive impacts of large-scale energy and transport projects on the ecologies of the South Caucasus by connecting distant geographies with future visions. Focusing on the power of moving images to shape and dismantle infrastructures, the publication weaves fragmented (hi)stories of people living around sites of transit and extraction - those who disrupt material systems to challenge state violence. Blending an artist’s book and a reader, The Mountain Speaks to the Sea experiments with translating film into print. Edited by Tekla Aslanishvili and Silvia Franceschini, it features contributions from Alexandra Aroshvili, Ifor Duncan, Silvia Franceschini, Evelina Gambino, and Timothy Mitchell.
