THE TRAIN TO MOSCOW OBTAINS EAST DOC PLATFORM AWARD

THE TRAIN TO MOSCOW has obtained the East Doc Platform Award for best project in post-production.

The jury - Simon Kilmurry (Documentary POV, USA), Heléna Fantl (La fémis, France) and Veton Nurkollari (DokuFest, Kosovo) – admitted that their decision to be rather difficult:

… We would hope to see all the projects finished as soon as possible, but since we are a jury, we had to single out one we think stood out most. The Train to Moscow captivated us because of its unique use of personal footage that shows almost archival quality and very significant historical value. It tells about an almost utopian belief, that of communism and Soviet Union. According to the name of the presentation, we hope to see your film launched as soon as possible."
