Kirsten Gainet’s film “Tomorrow Comes Yesterday” documents the repressions of the Crimean Tatars, which started in 2014 when Russia annexed Crimea. The film investigates the tragedy of the representatives of a small Turkic Muslim ethnic group and nation indigenous to Crimea, that never made the international headlines. The jury would like to mention the respect and tenderness with which the film tells the stories of the families who are fighting for the release of their sons, brothers and husbands who were arrested for invented reasons and either kept behind bars or sentenced after closed trials.
