Dolma Diaries / Caucasian Blues
19:00 — OSTFLÜGEL ROOM
Dolma Diaries / Caucasian Blues is a dialogue initiative by Candid foundation and Oliver Mueser that brings together Armenian, Azerbaijani and Georgian artists and media professionals to develop entertaining joint projects.
Rather than discussing dialogue and reconciliation abstractly, the initiative uses collaborative filmmaking as a way to build relationships and make the shared humanity of people across divided societies visible.
From 2021 to 2024, the initiative resulted in the four-part comedy web series Dolma Diaries, bringing together artists from Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia. From 2024 to 2026, the collaboration developed into Caucasian Blues, a 90-minute feature film and the first modern Armenian-Azerbaijani-Georgian feature-length fiction production.🎥🎭
