The festival took place from 16 to 30 April in one of the largest humanitarian universities in Turkey - Istanbul Cultural University. The educational institution has a number of institutions, representatives of one of them - the Institute of Acting and Cinematography - annually organizes the festival. It is worth noting that almost all of the financial costs of participants (accommodation, food, logistics, equipment, etc.) assume the organizers.
This year's festival was attended by representatives from Georgia, Bulgaria, Jordan, Greece, Turkey and Ukraine (by the way, representatives of our university - the first Ukrainian guests of the event within 5 years of its existence).
The creative team of the Faculty warmly welcomed. Participants shocked friendly attitude, sincere communication, tours, superb accommodation, impressive material equipment. This support has helped our students perform very well. Even without words, only through dance, they were able to clearly convey on stage the diversity of feelings, emotions and pay attention to the issues at hand - peace and good social injustice, fighting for survival… Viewers embraced the show very well. Even journalists of Bulgarian television after viewing interest in our team and had a half-hour interview with them!
