Boston Turkish Film and Music Festival
6th ANNUAL BOSTON TURKISH FILM FESTIVAL
March 29 - May 13, 2007
This year's festival invites you to enjoy a rich program of eleven films as it
continues its tradition of highlighting contemporary Turkish cinema and Turkish
filmmakers. We are proud to present you North America and U.S. premieres of many
films in our program, three of which are currently in competition at the 26th
Istanbul Film Festival - Climates, Destiny, The Magician. We are also delighted
to present the Boston Turkish Film Festival's Excellence in Turkish Cinema Award
to director Zeki Demirkubuz at the screening of his latest film, Destiny
(Kader).
We have extended our festival program to include a series of lectures, exhibits
and concerts under the theme "Mevlana and Sufism" as 2007 has been declared by
UNESCO the year of Mevlana Celaleddin-i Rumi, celebrating the 800th anniversary
of his birth.
This year's program also has some delightful surprises, such as a concert by
internationally acclaimed Turkish musician Husnu Senlendirici with the New York
Gypsy All-Stars Band, a master of clarinet and the Turkish gypsy music.
