“Tarzan’s Testicles”, in competition at Karlovy Vary 2017


     Ouăle lui Tarzan / Tarzan's Testicles, the latest documentary directed by Alexandru Solomon, will be internationally premiered at the 52nd Edition of the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival (30 June – 8 July 2017).
     The film was included in the official competition dedicated to documentaries, within the most significant cinema event held in the Czech Republic.
     Tarzan's Testicles will have two screenings in Cluj-Napoca next week, on 9 June, at 16.00, at the Students Culture House, and on 10 June, at 14:45, at Sapienția University. The documentary will be screened within the programme Zilele Filmului Românesc, at TIFF.
     Suhum is the capital city of Abhaziei, a small Republic not recognised officially, located on the Oriental shore of the Black Sea. On a hill above the city there stretches the park of a medical institute performing research on monkeys, set up by the Soviets during the ‘20s. The legend says it was set up for creating a hybrid between man and monkey. But the creatue was never born, just as the New Man of the Communism was never born. Today, people and monkeys are captive in a territory ravaged by war and decades of cruelty, both being victims of a series of failed events. 
     The film will be officially premiered in movie theatres this fall, on 6 October. Tarzan's Testicles will be distributed in Romania by microFILM. '
