WHEN THE EARTH SEEMS TO BE LIGHT is the winner of IDFA 2015 Award for Best First Appearance. A cinematic documentary about modern youth, being lost searching for non existing spots of freedom in a post-Soviet Georgia  by Salome Machaidze, Tamuna Karumidze, David Meskhi.

Cinema contains many portraits of young masculinity, but our experiential, expertly-crafted Grand Prize-winning film, When the Earth Seems to be Light, sees its outsider subjects differently. It finds within their apathy the visions of a different and better life.
