31FFC Sektions Button Hits

This year's HITS once again presents the most successful box office hits from Eastern Europe. From a classic high school film about a Mediterranean wedding in distress to a reflection on sexualised violence in Central Asia, wrapped up in a horror story - something that commercial cinema can also do. Whether ‘just’ entertainment - simple, but well made - or relevant subjects in a commercial guise: these topics occupy the audience in ‘FFC territory’.

Popular cinema at it's best.
