The festival, which will screen the first film ever made about the Kurds, Grass, and the second film, Zerê, highlights the journey of Kurdish cinema from its past to the present and emphasizes the rich heritage and future perspectives in this field.

Cinema and the online world offer more than just an artistic and expressive outlet for the Kurdish people; they have the power to bring together a community divided by hardships and borders, rallying around a common identity and culture. This festival transcends physical boundaries, bringing together Kurds worldwide and anyone interested in Kurdish culture. Through the universal language of cinema, it is possible to develop a common understanding and a spirit of solidarity.
