When Sandro's father decides to become a monk, the withdrawn teenager feels as if the ground is slipping from under his feet. His mother works abroad, and his grandmother is too old to take care of him, so the boy takes the path of maturity alone and opens up both to the girl Laša, who belongs to the ultra-right movement, and to his awakening sexuality. In the film "Panopticon", the director searches for the border between being an observer and the observed, while reflecting the society of modern Sakartvel, where Christian traditions and nationalism conflict with the desire to create a modern and independent state.
