feeding source for contemporary art over the course of centuries,
Soviet culture too, acquires new unique national forms, and it's very
difficult to move away from that,' film critic Armen Medvedev told a
PanARMENIAN.Net reporter in Yerevan.

and people. For us it was not as significant as it was for the town
and children. Children acquire a lot of information from such events.
First of all the learn the culture of communication. I think the fifth
creative jubilee was quite a success,» he said.
Film critic also expressed regret that classical youth and children's
films are no longer in demand although they still remain as important.
«Yeralash newsreel is still alive in Russia as a series of children's
films, so to say. It continues communicating with children in the same
language as it did 20 years ago. That's why it is now important to
study children's demand and search for a new form of children's film,»
