Four Georgian movies to be screened at Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival 2020

Four Georgian movies will be screened at Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival which will take place on November 13-29 in Estonian cities of Tallinn, Tartu, Narva and Kohtla- Järve.

In honour of the late Georgian film director Zaza Urushadze three movies by him will be shown in Tallinn – Tangerines, Three Houses and Anthon.

Tangerines (Mandarinebi), the first Georgian-Estonian co-production was shortlisted among five films in the Best Foreign Language Film category at the Oscars 2015.

Anton is the last work of Urushadze. It tells the story of friendship between two boys that is stronger than the dramatic events that are unfolding around them.

Anton is a co-production of Ukraine, Georgia, Lithuania, the United States, and Canada.
