Foreign films will be on in Georgia only dubbed into the Georgian language, or with captions in Georgian.

The "Georgia Today" Agency reports that according to these amendments, showing films already dubbed into Russian will be forbidden; exceptions will be made for serials, animation and other products intended for preschool children.

The bills assume a ban on showing all foreign films at cinemas and on TV as accompanied by translation, the "Vesti.ru" reports.
