A Few Words of Introduction
It seems that the world has never been as small as it is today. Everything seems to be within arm’s reach, we believe we can satisfy our curiosity and gain an insight into the events taking place at any chosen point on our planet at any moment. However, this impression is misleading. We do not have a wide selection of choices that would enable us to freely decide which ones we will pay greater attention to. Everything that is within arm’s reach and sight has been previously screened and selected.

Special screenings of film Still
Triglav National Park (TNP) has organized special screenings in their information centers in Bled, Bohinj and Trenta. They choose film Still by Matti Bauer, which is showing a fragment of life in similar mountainous region in Germany. It was promotion of our festival but above all approach to audience, which is not regular visitor of ethnographic festivals or cinema. We would like to thanks Ana Kunstelj, the organizer of the event, for opportunity and her commitment to ethnographic films.
