WELCOME TO THE NEW COUNTRIES!
Six new countries - Croatia, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Serbia and Slovenia - join the CinEast festival in 2012.
Their participation will be duly celebrated by special welcome evenings that will include the screening of the first film from the relevant country, in the presence of special guests, as well as an informal tasting of typical drinks and snacks. Since these evenings will naturally take place in the first days of the festival, get ready for a quick immersion course on the culture and gastronomy of the three Baltic States and the three ex-Yugoslavian republics. The schedule is as follows:

Welcome to Estonia 11 October at 20.30, Salle Krieps, festival opening

Welcome to Croatia 15 October at 20.30, Salle Krieps |
