Yerevan/Mediamax/. VivaCell-MTS announced the kick off of the Golden Apricot International Film Festival, which has recently been ranked among the top ten film festivals of the world.
“Cinema is a window opening to the boundless universe and a cauldron of human destinies. This art has a great mission of celebrating the diversity of the world and seeding endless love to it. I am confident the Armenian cinematography has its say among the variety of voices once again strengthens our country’s positions in the cultural mosaic of the world,” said VivaCell-MTS General Manager Ralph Yirikian.
The festival will continue the Yerevan Premiere, Retrospective Screening, and Tribute of Honor non-contest programs. A novelty is the Book and Cinema program, which is organized in the frames of Yerevan, the World Book Capital proclaimed by UNESCO.
