23rd Golden Apricot International Film Festival

Poetry is not merely rhythm and rhyme; it is a way of feeling and giving meaning to the world. We invite you not only to observe art but to live within it, to remain sensitive, curious, and open to become part of cinema’s poetic landscape. Our call is to approach cinema not as something to be explained, but as something to be discovered. Main screenings will take place at the Cinema House, Moscow Cinema, and Nairi Cinema. The festival's main poster was created by artist and designer Igor Gurovich.
