"Let's part while we are good" 

Motion picture "Let's part while we are good" was made by the legendary film director Vladimir Motyl (1927-2010) in 1991 based on Fazil Iskander's novel "Old Hasan's Pipe". In Iskander's story an old man tells the legend about a proud highlander who praised honor, justice and consideration for people above all else. The hero of the movie was a strong personality defeated only by the succession of betrayals.
In 1991 the State Committee for Cinematography treated the picture in a cool manner. Fazil Iskander attempted to defend it but officials and producers did not care. The picture was never shown in cinemas. The only show was in the overcrowded movie theatre of the Kennedy Center in the capital of the USA.
