World Film Festival goes to Schilling Music festival July 01, 2013
World Film festival, celebrating its 10th anniversary, has decided to go on a trip in Estonia. Every spring for the past 10 years filmmakers have come to Tartu from many different places and taken their audiences on a trip around the world through their films. This summer Worldfilm will start its own tour, and the first stop is Kilingi-Nõmme and the Schilling music festival.
A selection of films screened in Worldfilm during the last 5 years will be shown on July 6th and 7th in the Kilingi-Nõmme postal house. The topics of the films vary from an anthropological thriller set in Papua New-Guinea to the warm and hot-tempered friendship of people living in the Võrumaa countryside, and from the village life of Germany and Ukraine to the self-forgetful musical expressions on the island of Zanzibar. The film gest in Kilingi-Nõmme will end with a wonderful film about the Golden Temple in Amritsar, where hundreds of volunteers prepare 50 000 free meals every day.
