Kalev, de Ove Musting

Este artículo está disponible en inglés.

Taking place online this year, from 23-27 November, the industry sidebar of the Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival, Industry@Tallinn & Baltic Event, is still set to showcase a decent batch of Baltic and Finnish projects. The ones being presented in the International Works in Progress categories will compete for the Post Production Award from Helsinki-based post-production house Post Control (worth €10,000), while the Baltic Event Works in Progress Award will come with €3,000. These prizes are due to be handed out by jurors Isabel Ivars-Sancho, Ilaria Gomarasca and Nikolaj Nikitin.

Maria Ulfsak, project manager for Baltic Event Works in Progress, commented: “The projects in the Baltic Event Works in Progress selection this year are very different, from a €3 million historical adventure film to smaller, edgier and more experimental projects. This shows the rude health of the regional film industry: very different films are in production and post-production, and even though the virus has affected us all, the future looks bright. Hopefully, we can all meet in person in wintry Tallinn next year.”

The Baltic Event Works in Progress selection will welcome the sports drama Kalev [+lee también:

For the second time, projects in the children’s and youth film category will also be given some attention, competing for the Just Film Award (to the tune of €1,000) intended to cover promotion and publicity costs.
