The first feature film done by the director Ivan Ostrochovský, Goat, has been nominated for the 65th edition of the Berlinale film festival for best debut award. "Among the selection of film debuts, which are chosen by the Berlinale's director Dieter Kosslick, it is the first time that a Slovak film appears there. It is a great honor for us," Ivan Ostrochovský reacted to the nomination. The Slovak-Czech drama depicts the story of a former Olympian, Gypsy boxer Peter Baláž, nicknamed Goat, who after years without training and living in poor social conditions decides to re-enter the ring.
