FILM AND POLITICS remains as a written trace of the Conference, a unique collection of works that fascinatingly, with rich content, points to the relationship between film and politics and the attempt to introduce political ideas through films without the direct awareness of the viewer.

We thank the Conference participants for their cooperation and look forward to new meetings.
