International film festival in Chechnya

 

An international film festival is to take place next year in Grozny, the head of the Chechen film studios, Inal Sheripov, told Ria Novosti. The festival's motto is “War is over – arthouse forever!”. There is an interest in our festival, Sheripov says. The festival is scheduled for the 1st-11th of April, but its French partners want to schedule it for the 1st-9th of June. There are multiplexes and cinema theatres in Grozny, but the organizers want to find an appropriate location.
