Armenian film “Autumn sun” won in the film festival “Web Aprocot”

YEREVAN, January 27. /ARKA/. The film “Autumn sun” became the winner of Armenian film festival “Web Apricot” organized from November 15 to December 25, 2011.

International film festival “Golden apricot” and Internet-TV Webtv.am with the support of mobile operator VivaCell-MTS (affiliate of Russian “MTS”) have founded Armenian film festival “Web Apricot”. 

“I think the film shows the fading feminine beauty. This film is very poetic and it is a mood. One expert familiar to me, after watching the film said that I create drama in the film by mood. In my opinion, the ability to create mood is my trump card”, said Film Director Diana Kardumyan to ARKA News Agency during the awarding ceremony. 

The film received Grand Prix which cost $1 thousand in dram equivalent. Arsen Hayrapetyan’s film “Harbor of crossing fates” received the special prize in $500 (in dram equivalent).

Encouragement prizes were awarded to the films “A light touch”, “School Nakhsho”, “That other Frunzik”, “Help them now” and “Bye-bye”.

In the festival’s program participated 42 films. Duration of the films should not have exceeded 20 minutes. Photography genre, quality and format remained on the filmmakers.

Primarily it was envisaged to determine the winner through Internet-voting, but then, due to certain technical reasons the organizers rejected this idea deciding to establish a panel of jury who selected the winner.

The films demonstrated in the festival were broadcasted only by Internet-TV Webtv.am.  ---0-
