Azer Guliyev's film "Sanki Yoxsan" will be screened at Sarajevo Film Festival (SFF) on August 16-23, Azernews reports.
The film, produced by the French company La Luna Productions, was previously included in the short film competition program of the 77th Cannes International Film Festival.
The 16-minute film, in which the director acted and co-wrote the script with Nijat Mukhtarov, was included in the short film program of the festival.
Azer Guliyev's film "Sanki Yoxsan" will be screened on August 21-23. The film cast includes Milana Gasanova, Oktay Mehdiyev and Elshan Mammadov.
The SFF was founded at the end of the 1992-1995 Bosnian War by a group of film enthusiasts and has since enjoyed the support of filmmakers from around the world.
This year, the festival will screen 240 films. 54 films from Southeastern Europe, Ukraine and the South Caucasus will compete in four categories – features, shorts, documentaries and student films – for the Heart of Sarajevo Award, including 19 world premieres.
The festival, which spans from Vienna to Istanbul, will honor Hollywood stars, actors, and directors Meg Ryan, John Turturro, and Alexander Payne for their contributions to the arts.
Sarajevo Film Festival (SFF) will open with the world premiere of "My Late Summer" by Bosnian Oscar-winning director Danis Tanovic.
