Istanbul Universal Kid´s Film Festival, a set on Flickr.
Launching Ceremony for The Universal Kids Film Festival 2012 was held on the 22nd May at the Yildiz Palace, Istanbul.
We had opportunity to hear several nice speeches which used one idea – that the most precious value are OUR children. With this motto and huge enthusiasm of Rowena Martinez Ulayan (festival directress) and her great team, you might enjoy this special event in September this year (22-29).
Festival is being supported by Besiktas, Kadikoy and Maltepe municipalities and embassies of Afghanistan, Australia, Austria, Canada, Germany Greece, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Philippines and Sweden. Thank you!
