This year in Kaunas an international team of young filmmakers from Finland, Netherlands and Lithuania will be contributing Nisimazine during Kaunas International Film Festival (September 26th – October 7th). This Project is a result of co-operation with European film network Nisi Masa, which is organising Nisimazine during many important film festivals not only around Europe. A group of young film critics will creat an unique series of newspapers which is distributed all around the world.

 

Nisimazine is a daily festival magazine, created in the framework of a series of film journalism workshops designed for young film critics taking place during international film festivals. Every year it is held in Cannes, Rotterdam, Abu Dhabi, Karlovy Vary and many other film festivals. An independent publication is distributed online daily for cinema enthusiasts and film professionals all over the world.

 

It contains film reviews, reports from festival events and interviews and portraits of cinema personalities – with of course a particular focus on young talents. Young participants (aged 18-30) are invited to attend the festival, where they form an editorial team responsible for creating Nisimazine : from watching films, writing articles and making interviews, to taking photographs, working on the layout and distribution.
