“I would like to thank the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev for reviving the film festival. This is a huge gift for all filmmakers. For me, the festival became one of the most significant events in my life. The long-awaited premiere of the film “Baron-2. Return”, where I played the main role. I was amazed by the level of organization of the premiere. Everything was very worthy. There was a screening of my film “Peri’s Gift”, where I acted as a director.”
