REVIEWS

Kreditis Limiti (Line of Credit) – Venice 71 Orizzonti

Salomé Alexi is dealing with the sensitive issue of financial crisis in the post-Soviet Georgian society seen from a female point of view.

Yuri Esposito – Venice 70 Biennale College

Athina Rachel Tsangari tries to find Who’s the Best in General with a deadpan odd satire that dismantles masculinity and makes Greek Weird Wave to go feel-good. Special Jury Mention at the 21st Sarajevo Film Festival.

Saul Fia (Son of Saul) – Sarajevo 21

László Nemes masterfully recreates a Holocaust Inferno where you can’t escape and the only way to survive is through death. Special Jury Prize at the 21st Sarajevo Film Festival.
