This is Mirsad Purivatra’s perception of the Sarajevo Film Festival, which he founded 20 years ago and has been directing ever since. In the video, Mirsad Purivatra shares his impressions on the festival and gives a review on the first part of his fellowship at the Robert Bosch Academy and his stay in Berlin. “The biggest benefit I got from Robert Bosch Academy and Berlin: at any age you have the chance to learn and you have the chance to share your knowledge with other people.”
