12. International 1001 Documentary Film Festival
4-11 December 2009
The story of the first documentary film festival in Turkey has begun in 1997 "to
fill in the gaps of the social memory and to achieve the cultural continuity" in
Istanbul. Organized by the Association of Documentary Filmmakers in Turkey (BSB),
The International 1001 Documentary Film Festival has become a festive meeting
which is followed by the cinema audiences and documentary filmmakers.
The new meeting in Istanbul will be realized between 4th and 11th December
2009. Many documentary films will open many doors for the audience who would like
to see, and the stories of humanity will touch each other in the 12th Festival.
We're waiting for your applications. As a principle, our festival has no
competitive section from the beginning. All films submitted are watched carefully by
collective groups and evaluated in terms of the universal language of cinema and
ethic- aesthetic approaches.
The 12th International 1001 Documentary Film Festival defines documentary film
as one of the main instruments of the world citizens to express and to face up to
themselves and understand each other. Documentary filmmaking is aesthetics of
searching verity, and a creative way for designing the future. International 1001
Documentary Film Festival focuses on the human as a respectful being to the other
beings in the world, and supports the human rights struggle for a better world, with its
civic and independent identity.
We're waiting for your documentaries that make contribution to common
history and cultural heritage of the world, to motivate the awareness of each other
and sharing our stories... Türkçe için...>>
