Dito Tsintsadze is one of the best directors of modern Georgian cinema (despite the fact that he lives in Germany, he makes films in Georgia too). Each of his films is met with special interest by both filmmakers and film lovers. The film "On the Edge" (1993) turned out to be a milestone, very successful one for him, which was invited to various international screenings. At the Locarno International Film Festival, this film was awarded ...
There was a time when only a few women directors made films in the world cinema as well as in the Georgian cinema. Film directing, quite unreasonably, used to be considered more of a men's job.
