New Film Studios in Estonia Set to Boost Filming in the Baltics


A filming hub to Kristen Stewart’s 'The Chronology of Water,' Latvia will follow Estonia’s efforts to build soundstages.

No fewer than three weighty European co-productions selected for Cannes have chosen Latvia as a filming destination: Kristen Stewart ’s “The Chronology of Water,” Sergei Loznitsa ’s “Two Prosecutors” and Kirill Serebrennikov ’s “The Disappearance of Josef Mengele.” Forma Pro Films’ Svetlana Punte, Yulia Zayceva and Max Pavlov served as producers alongside Stewart’s Nevermind Pictures, CG Cinema Intl.
