Message from RA Minister of Culture

I salute the participants and guests of the “Apricot Tree” Second International Film Festival.
The festival aspires to take on a telling role in the preservation and dissemination of our national culture and traditions. It is also an important platform for intercultural dialogue, for passing on the spiritual and cultural heritage to the generations via new ways of expression, and also for a cooperation between artists from various countries.
With an enlarged geography and by presenting interesting and rich programs to the Armenian art-loving society, the festival, which is being held for the second time, is coming to replenish the family of Armenian festivals.

I wish the festival a good run and productive work.

Hasmik Poghosyan
RA Minister of Culture
