68th Cork International Film Festival
The film Melchior the Apothecary directed by Elmo Nüganen will be screened at the 68th Cork International Film Festival. The film will be shown in the online program from November 20 to November 26.
Melchior is an apothecary who is also adept at solving crimes, looking to science and evidence rather than superstition and faith, in mediaeval Tallinn. When a mysterious and bloody wave of murders sweep the town, Melchior is deputised by the sheriff and is dropped headlong into a world of conspiracy and mysterious church dealings. One of the most successful films at the Estonian box office in recent history, Melchior the Apothecary is an engrossing medieval crime drama
