Explained simply
Tallinn Black Nights is an international film festival held in Estonia, with a programme that includes films from many countries. Its selection ranges from conventional genres to stories and formats that may be less familiar to mainstream audiences.
The titles mentioned come from different parts of the world and explore sharply contrasting subjects, from family secrets to sexuality and independent filmmaking. Together, they show how festivals can bring audiences films that might otherwise receive less attention in cinemas.
