DERSİM - The 3rd International Yılmaz Güney Culture and Art Festival started in Dersim.

The 3rd Yılmaz Güney Culture and Art Festival, the first of which was held in 2008 and the second in 2012 have begun in Turkey's eastern province of Dersim. The festival this years is jointly organized by the Yüz Çiçek Açsın (Meaning "Let a hundred flowers bloom") Cultural Center, the Dersim Municipality and the Yılmaz Güney Foundation. The festival have began with the screening of 12 films.
 
 The festival set out with the claim to be a festival where the art of the people is developed, the good and the beauty are encouraged, and the people of our country meet beyond the “limits of enmity” built by the rulers. 
 
The festival team defines the festival as: "Yılmaz Güney Culture and Art Festival has been further enriched with the participation of friendly hearts from Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Brazil, Germany, by crossing the borders with hope, love, songs about more beautiful country and the world. For these and many other reasons, Yılmaz Güney Culture and Art Festival is not a ‘competition’ organization. The awards given have spiritual value and are intended to thank labor, to reveal cultural accumulation, to encourage participation, to provide motivation and opportunities. Indeed, in terms of hundreds of participants, participating in a festival organized on behalf of Yılmaz Güney was considered the greatest “award” to be a partner of tomorrow’s bright dream."
