"I am glad that most of the events start with AGERPRES, which is present together with Alpin Film Festival, this time with an extraordinary exhibition, which can be seen at Coresi Mall. The big surprise that AGERPRES prepared for the people of Brasov is that they found images of Brasov, from the Agency's archive - which is formidable and, therefore, they can discover unique pictures, which they do not know, together with other wonderful pictures from nature, taken by AGERPRES reporters", said the president of Alpin Film Festival, Dan Burlac, Agerpres informs.
The event also marks a first related to the locations where, within this film festival, 18 of the 35 documentaries in the two competitions, international and national, will be screened at the Astra Cinema, which in the last 20 years was closed to the public.
