About this event
Taghiyev: Oil / Tağıyev: Neft2024, 1h 44m, AzerbaijanGenre: Biography, HistoryDirector: Zaur GasimliAugust 1922. An American journalist, Jerry Thompson, travels to the Soviet Union and arrives in Azerbaijan. He visits the settlement of Mardakan in Baku. There, he meets an elderly man at a villa. Thompson can hardly believe what he hears. Standing before him is Haji Zeynalabdin Taghiyev, a once-great oil producer, millionaire, and philanthropist who lost all his wealth after the establishment of Soviet rule. Haji recounts his life story to the guest, a journey that saw him rise from a humble mason to an influential oil industrialist. All films at CEFF are presented in their original language with English subtitles.
