Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival is a unique event combining a feature film festival with the sub-festivals of animated films, student films and children/youth films. The festival aims to present Estonian audiences a comprehensive selection of world cinema in all its diversity, providing a friendly atmosphere for interaction between the audience and filmmakers from all around the world.
Traditionally two festivals are held yearly one being Black Night Film Festival (PÖFF) and an other Tartu Love Film Festival (tARTuFF). There is a number of minor festivals and programs inside, that reflect topics important in the society - for instance, documentaries (this year focusing on migration, refugees, wars or relations between cultures and relations in societies)
We are always trying to work on topics that are important in the society - it is not only chosing and showing films, it is also organizing discussions, side-events as exhibitions etc). We can provide space for this, and include networks suggestions and Networks competence in our work.
Currently issues about clash of cultures and refugees, freedom of speech etc are currently much tied up to Southern Mediterranean. We are looking forward to both get suggestions on how to approach the topics, and also suggestions on what is happening in film production area in this part of the world, to be better able to provide a high-quality program for Estonian public.
