The audience will be given an opportunity to participate in interactive discussions with the guests of honor.
Another novelty of the Festival is that it will take place in 3 cinema locations (`Park Cinema` Park Boulevard, `Park Cinema` Metro Park and Nizami Cinema) in Baku.
To allow for a broad participation of the Azerbaijani public each movie will be shown in 2 sessions and entrance to all the films will be free. Tickets can be taken from "Park Cinema" cash boxes.
