Peegelpildis
Известная эстонской публике Лайла Пакалныня привезет на PÖFF свою совершенно новую работу «В отражении». Фильм латвийского режиссера представляет собой остроумное толкование бессмертной истории Белоснежки.
Laila Pakalniņa (1962) graduated in film direction from the Moscow Film Institute (VGIK) and has directed over 30 documentaries and fiction films. Pakalnina appeared on the international scene when two of her documentaries were chosen for Un Certain Regard section at the Cannes film festival. Her first feature film, “The Shoe”, was a return to Soviet Union in 1950s (PÖFF 1998). Pakalnina’s second feature “The Python” was selected at Venice Film Festival programme and was shown also at PÖFF. Pakalnina’s documentary “Three Men and Fishbound” (2008, co-directed with Maris Maskalans) won the Best Baltic Film prize at PÖFF.
