Ocean 39-s Thirteen Qartulad -
When a Tbilisi nightclub owner double-crosses his old partners, they assemble a crew of Georgian fixers, winemakers, and former Soviet cyber-experts to pull off the most elegant heist in the history of the Black Sea resort town, Batumi.
Dato then delivers a three-minute toast — a masterpiece of Georgian rhetoric — recounting every betrayal Rezo committed, each line ending with a sip of wine. The oligarch's associates laugh. Rezo's pride shatters louder than any glass. Ocean 39-s Thirteen Qartulad

Rezo discovers the theft mid-ceremony. He storms toward Dato. But Dato raises his glass.
