    Yerevan in festivals

    Yerkir.am
    July 14, 2006

    The third "Golden Apricot" festival is in its midst. Immediately after
    its end the capital will host the traditional jazz festival followed by
    "Armmono" and "Hayfest" international festivals.

    These festivals make the cultural life of the capital interesting. Only
    a few years ago, not many people believed the "Golden Apricot"
    festival would be a success. Now that the third "Golden Apricot"
    is under way it is certain that it is much better and some of the
    films screened here could satisfy prestigious festivals.

    It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Yerevan is becoming an
    international movie capital during the festival days. Only a few
    years ago when pessimistic voices were heard about the festival the
    organizers countered them with their unyielding will.

    The various sections of the festival are headed by world-renowned
    figures, such as Zanussi, Atom Egoyan and Marco Beloccio whose names
    could crown any other festival. Let alone Atavazd Peleshian, whose
    mere presence gives this festival an international significance.
