Public Defender says she’d like to attend the premiere of “And We Dance” movie

If they give me tickets, I'll be happy to attend the premiere, - Public Defender Nino Lomjaria said in response to the developments surrounding the Georgian-Swedish film "And We Dance". Lomjaria described the noise around the film as a direct threat and medieval thinking, which goes beyond ​​freedom of expression.

“What we heard that they are going to block buildings, their entrances, disrupt the premiere of the movie, is a direct threat. All this is not an area protected by freedom of expression and that is why we urged both the protesters and the Ministry of Internal Affairs to take necessary measures to ensure that the freedom of movement of others, the rights and safety of others are not jeopardized. I hope that the police will be mobilized and I hope that any complication will be avoided,” Nino Lomjaria said.

According to Lomjaria, freedom of creativity is guaranteed by the constitution of our country.

"No one can forbid or determine what type of film should be made, released or watched," the Public Defender said.
