Georgian feature film The Summer of Frozen Fountains premieres at local cinemas

Georgian director Vano Burduli's new feature film The Summer of Frozen Fountains will premiere at Georgian and Estonian cinemas this week after screening at the 2015 Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival.

Released in November last year, the film was featured in the main competition section of one of Europe's most prestigious festivals in Estonia's capital Tallinn.

The film also screened at the 2015 Tbilisi International Film Festival.

The director spoke to the cinema website Cineuropa about his inspiration and vision on the film's story as the production was presented to festival audiences.

With screenplay by Burduli and Davit Chubinishvili and a mixed cast of Georgian and foreign actors, the film narrated about experiences of several characters in quest for personal happiness.

Named after a curious true event in Georgia's capital where park fountains were found frozen on one winter day, Burduli said he had sought an allegory on rapidly changing human feelings in private lives.

The film will debut at Georgian and Estonian cinema theatres on January 21.
