The Sheep Detectives at FOMO Open-Air Cinema

🌞 SUMMER AT FOMO IS BACK!

After what feels like an endless run of rain, we're finally ready to reopen Tbilisi's only rooftop cinema.

To celebrate the return of warm evenings under the stars, we're launching this summer's Open-Air Cinema season with the Academy Award-winning LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE, followed on Friday by the new mystery comedy THE SHEEP DETECTIVES, starring Hugh Jackman.

Bring your friends, grab a drink from the FOMO Bar, and settle in for a summer of great films on the rooftop. We offer a wide selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, snacks, and fresh hot popcorn. Please note that popcorn is available by online pre-order only and must be purchased when booking your ticket.

We can't wait to welcome you back.

THE SHEEP DETECTIVES (2026)

Friday 31 July | Runtime: 103 min | English audio with English subtitles

Few films this year have taken audiences by surprise quite like THE SHEEP DETECTIVES. What looks like a light-hearted mystery about talking sheep quickly reveals itself to be one of the funniest, warmest and most unexpectedly moving films of the year.

Based on Leonie Swann's bestselling novel Three Bags Full, the story follows a flock of unusually intelligent sheep who set out to solve the mysterious murder of their beloved shepherd. As their investigation unfolds, the film becomes a wonderfully inventive whodunnit filled with humour, heart and genuine suspense.

Directed by Minions filmmaker Kyle Balda and adapted by Emmy and Academy Award-winning writer Craig Mazin (The Last of Us, Chernobyl), THE SHEEP DETECTIVES blends the cosy charm of Paddington, the mystery of Knives Out, and the warmth of Babe into something entirely its own.

This is by no means a children's film. Beneath its playful premise is a surprisingly thoughtful story about grief, friendship and the families we build around us. Led by a superb voice cast including Hugh Jackman, it's exactly the kind of clever, uplifting crowd-pleaser that deserves to be discovered on the big screen.

SCHEDULE

20:00 Arrive early to make the most of the evening. Find your seat, enjoy a drink from the FOMO Bar, and watch the sunset over Old Tbilisi while we play music and get the cinema ready for the night.

ABOUT FOMO OPEN-AIR CINEMA

We opened FOMO Open-Air Cinema in the summer of 2025 with one simple idea: to create the kind of summer cinema we'd always hoped to find in Tbilisi. As Australian film lovers, some of our favourite memories were evenings spent watching films outdoors after sunset, with a cold drink in hand and a great film on the big screen. We wanted to bring that experience here.

Whether you're joining us with friends, on a date, or flying solo, we hope FOMO becomes part of your summer.

Thank you for supporting local independent cinemas like ours and the Tbilisi film community. We look forward to welcoming you throughout the summer on the rooftop, and year-round downstairs at FOMO Secret Cinema.

FOOD & DRINK POLICY

Guests are welcome to bring food and drinks purchased inside Bazari Orbeliani to enjoy during the screening. Outside drinks are not permitted. FOMO bar one underneath the terrace offers a wide selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks

Fresh hot popcorn is available by online pre-order only and must be purchased when booking your ticket.

LOCATION

Bazari Orbeliani Rooftop Terrace, a five-minute walk from Liberty Square Metro Station, on the corner of Atoneli St and Sulkanishvili St.

HOW TO FIND FOMO OPEN-AIR CINEMA

Enter Bazari Orbeliani from Atoneli Street via the entrance above Carrefour. Take the stairs on the left when you walk and follow the signs to the rooftop. The stairs on the right that also go to to the rooftop but will be locked so as not disturb the screening.

OPEN-AIR CINEMA REFUND POLICY

As this is an outdoor event, screenings may occasionally be affected by weather. If a screening is cancelled before it begins due to unsuitable weather, ticket holders will receive either a full refund or the option to transfer their ticket to another screening. Once a screening has started, tickets become non-refundable.

WHAT TO WEAR

Tbilisi weather likes to keep us on our toes. Even after a hot day, it can cool down quickly once the sun goes down, and the rooftop breeze can be surprisingly fresh. We'd recommend bringing a light jacket or jumper, just in case.
