Yusupova Natalya Yuryevna was the only representative from Uzbekistan selected to serve on the FICC (International Federation of Film Societies) jury. She had the honor of presenting the award for Best Film on behalf of the federation. Known for its independent perspective, FICC awarded its special “Kolyuchiy vzglyad” (“Piercing Gaze”) prize to the best film of the festival.
This participation holds great significance in terms of gaining international jury experience, enriching knowledge of festival organization, and strengthening ties with global filmmakers. Over 200 films of various genres and categories were screened during the festival.
