The Industry@Tallinn Baltic Event portion of the29th editionof theTallinn Black Nights Film Festival(PFF) has unveiled 18 works in progress that will be in the spotlight this year.

Works in Progress presents films currently in production or post-production and seeking sales agents or festival premieres. This years 18 projects cover three categories: Baltic Event Works in Progress, International Works in Progress, and Just Film Works in Progress. The lineup features both debut filmmakers and acclaimed directors presenting their latest works. Were thrilled with the diversity of the selected projects. It was important for us to include films from Ukraine, both to showcase their incredible resilience and to support filmmakers creating under extremely challenging circumstances, said Triin Tramberg, the project manager of International Works in Progress, citing 80 submissions for International Works in Progress. Were also excited to highlight new Catalan titles, particularly with Alba Sotorra returning the producer ofUpon Entry, which began in the festivals debut competition and had great success now presenting her new projectSalen Las Lobas.
