The Karlovy Vary International Film Festival’s Eastern Promises industry section and film market, focusing on works in progress or development handed out its awards Tuesday evening.

KVIFF Eastern Promises describes its mission as “bridging the gap between talented filmmakers and their potential partners, festivals and audiences.” The awards are open for producers and directors from the countries of Central and Eastern Europe, the Balkans, the former Soviet Union, the Middle East and North Africa introducing new films that will premiere after the Karlovy Vary festival.

This year, 39 projects competed for awards with a total value of 115,000 euros ($125,000) in three programs: Works in Progress, Works in Development – Feature Launch and First Cut+.

Last year, Klára Tasovská’s I’m Not Everything I Want to Be, about a female photographer on a journey towards freedom after the Soviet invasion of Prague, and Assel Aushakimova’s Bikechess, which explores government influence and journalistic ethics, won key Works in Progress honors. I’m Not Everything I Want to Be is part of the Special Screenings program of this year’s 58th KVIFF.

The 58th edition of the Karlovy Vary fest runs June 28-July 6. Its competition will be judged by a jury including indie film producer Christine Vachon and Geoffrey Rush.
