Festival Migrantskega Filma ( Festival of Migrant Film)

"Migration  is (becoming) one of the central global trends of the 21st century, therefore we dedicate the festival to all people who are forced to leave their home and seek protection and an opportunity for a decent life outside of their home countries. These tales, told through films, and the insight, provided by the invited guest speakers, do not only highlight the struggles and the hardships that migrants face in their quest to find and fully settle in their new home. They remind us, that the intercultural transfer of knowledge and the vivid circulation of creative energies bring some of the fundamental impulses to the social development in the contemporary world. The multicultural environments represent the testing grounds for the exploration of relations between different traditions and for the search for new forms of coexistence. For this reason, the vision of the festival remains a bright one! Its purpose doesn’t lie (only) in providing relevant information; it strives to promote understanding and acceptance of diversity and, therefore, contribute to fostering of a tolerant, inclusive and equitable society".
