ACROSS THE LAKE Festival of Balkan and Mediterranean film 


Last years edition of the "Across the Lake film festival", the public and the audience called it a discovery of the Balkans and the Mediterranean. This year our ambition is to establish ourselves on the map of cultural events in Macedonia as one of the most important summer festival. In addition, the echo in the Balkans and the Mediterranean encourages us to turn Dojran into the number one cultural and tourist destination in this part of the world. We are convinced that with the support of the Municipality of Dojran these intentions of ours will turn into a real movie fairy tale.

And this festival program, like last years, will be a joint conceptual, organizational and financial initiative of the city of Dojran and our festival, which in principle is a guarantee for the success, growth and development of Dojran as a unique cinematic, artistic, cultural and touristic experience.
Ran with this program, which we will turn into a festival zone. Of course, we remain on the area of the city amphitheater and the childrens playground as already acquired and recognized film oases.
