In 1960, he became a director at the Tbilisi-based Gruziya-film studio. In 1969, Shengelaia gained nationwide acclaim with the satyrical tragicomedy ''Arachveulebrivi gamopena'' ("An Unusual Exhibition") socio-political allusions of which caused discontent in the official Soviet cinema establishment. Since then, Shengelaia has retained a reputation of a highly individual filmmaker.〔Horton, Andrew (1993), ''Inside Soviet Film Satire: Laughter with a Lash'', pp. 105-117. Cambridge University Press, ISBN 0-521-43016-X〕 Shengelaia produced another high-profile tragicomedy about inept bureaucracy ''Tsisperi mtebi anu daujerebeli ambavi'' ("Blue Mountains, or Unbelievable Story"), one of the best achievements in the Soviet "social fiction" genre.〔Lawton, Anna M. (1992), ''Kinoglasnost'', p. 40. CUP Archive, ISBN 0-521-38814-7〕 It won the All-Union Film Festival Prize in 1984 and the USSR State Prize in 1985. After a major success in the 1980s, Eldar Shengelaia distanced himself from the cinema and became involved in the Georgian independence movement which gained a momentum in 1989. In the 1990s, Shengelaia briefly returned to the cinema and produced two films which were positively received by critics but did not attract a broader public attention.〔 (Шенгелая, Эльдар Николаевич (Shengelaia, Eldar Nikolayevich) ).
