    What is !f Istanbul? www.ifistanbul.com Founded in 2001, the !f Istanbul AFM International Independent Film Festival is Turkey’s first and only festival dedicated to independent cinema. Every February, it hosts some 70,000 film buffs and celebrated filmmakers from around the world. Dedicated to investigating directions cinema is taking, the festival is based around thematic sections, which change every year. In 2008, !f launched an international film competition - !f Inspired- designed to showcase emerging directors who are taking film in new directions. The competition carries a $15,000 prize for the Most Inspired Director. !f²: A Transterritorial Experiment in Film. 5 films in 20 locations, simultaneously As a festival our goal is to curate a broad variety of innovative films in a meaningful way, to screen that selection to as wide an audience as possible and facilitate a collective conversation. We have a new ally in digital technology which now allows films to travel great distances, unweighted by the canisters and reels that previously made such an enterprise both difficult and costly, without compromising on top-notch visual quality. In partnership with the acclaimed US-based cinema website The Auteurs, this year we will screen five of the festival's most sought-after films in 20 locations across Turkey and the Middle East concurrent to their weekend screenings in Istanbul. Many of these cities do not have cinema theaters. Those that do are often reliant on mainstream studio distribution of second or third run features. In GYUMRI !f Istanbul in partnership with the local partner City Research Center is organizing the !f² screening with the following Q&A session webcast in Gyumri at “Style” Art Gallery: address: 12 Gay str.; phone (0312) 52011; contact persons Ashot Mirzoyan, Armine Avetisyan.
