Biography


Janelidze was born on 7 August 1955 in Tbilisi. She studied at Shota Rustaveli Theatre and Film University under Tengiz Abuladze, graduating in 1981.[1]

Janelidze worked with Tengiz Abuladze on the 1984 film Repentance as screenwriter and music designer. The film won the Grand Prix at the 1987 Cannes Film Festival, was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film, and won the Nika Award in six categories, including Best Screenplay.[1]

In 1994 she wrote and directed the film Iavnana, which won her the State Prize of Georgia and Jakob Gogebashvili pedagogical prize.[2]

In 2000 Janelidze and actress Nanuka Khuskivadze founded the film production studio N&N.[3] In 2008-2009 Janelidze managed a project in which N&N studios collaborated with the Association for Film Heritage Protection to restore the 1912 film Journey of Akaki Tsereteili to Racha-Lechkhumi, Georgia's first documentary film.[4]

In 2011 Janelidze directed and co-wrote the film Will There Be a Theatre Up There?!, starring Kakhi Kavsadze, based on the true life story of the Kavsadze family. The film won a Nika Award for Best Film of the CIS and Baltic States.[3]
