Tbilisi 2005

We were present for the first time in the capital of Georgia and presented our prize to A Trip to Kharabakh (Gaseirneba Karabakhshi) by Levan Tutberidze (Georgia, 2005). Details of the prize

Reports :

A Warm Festival. Georgia was the setting for a festival that was friendly, organised, and challenging. Yannis Frangoulis closely assesses three very different films in competition and extrapolates the link to their social situation.

Tbilisi Tbilisi. Kora Tsereteli is impressed by the quality of three Georgian films, while recognising some of the problems both the filmmakers and the organizers of the festival have after 15 years of disaster in their country.

The Beauty and the Beasts of the South Caucasus. Although Georgian audiences understood the local references and humour of A Trip to Kharabakh, the FIPRESCI prize winner, Ingvald Bergsagel believes that the film could also be appreciated by a wider audience.
