Poli Open Air Gymnasium is coming, Mad about Poli, Mad about Film!
Starting this year, Poli and the 15th Telemach Youth Film Festival Sarajevo are joining forces to bring an even better movie-watching experience to the outdoor cinema on the playground of Safvet-beg Bašagić Elementary School. In addition to supporting the organization of the open-air cinema in Gimnazijska, this year Poli is also organizing a Poli breakfast for all Festival guests, volunteers and participants, which will be held every day in the festival square, in front of the Youth Theatre.
The new exclusive sponsor of the Festival, the Poli brand, has become the face of delicious festival gatherings and unique screenings in the outdoor cinema in Gimnazijska street.
Poli recognized the importance of OFF and decided to support the largest youth film festival in Europe, and Perutnina Ptuj thus confirmed the status of a socially responsible company. Cooperation is especially important, taking into account the investments, which are exclusively aimed at the development of new and young film authors and new generations of film workers.
During the five days of the Festival, as part of the Poli Open Air Gimnazijska, the audience will have the opportunity to watch 5 feature films from the OFF Generation Features and OFF Screen programs. After the screenings, the film crews will be introduced to the audience. The location of the open-air cinema in Gimnazijska is one of the most beautiful festival locations, as well as the most popular. With a capacity of 60 seats, i.e. beds, Poli Open Air Gimnazijska is certainly the sweetest cinema of the Festival, and at the same time offers 10 love beds.
In addition to the rebranded cinema and the new concept, this year's novelty is the Poli Dog offer, which will be available at the location.
In addition to supporting the organization of the open-air cinema in Gimnazijska, this year Poli is also organizing a Poli breakfast for all Festival guests, volunteers and participants, which will be held every day in the festival square, in front of the Youth Theatre.
"The collaboration between OFF and the Poli brand is something that really comes at the right time. A lot of things connect Poli and OFF, and I am grateful that we have the opportunity to perform together and create an environment where young filmmakers learn, work, network and present their films. OFF is the biggest festival of youth and short films in this part of Europe, and having such an important partner who will help us maintain the responsibility we have, is really nothing but great and facilitating", said Kenan Music, director of the Festival.
This year's jubilee, 15th Telemach Youth Film Festival Sarajevo takes place from July 18 to 22 at six festival locations. Programs and all details will be presented gradually during the month of June.
