The organisator of the promotion is non-govermental organisation “New chance in New” engaged with problems of persons with disabilities.

With a projection of film “Lucy”, that last eleven minutes, about the autistic girl , and that was awarded in Cannes, started the promotion of seven documentary films of the authors from USA, Canada, United Kingdom, Italy and Spain.

The promotion, with regards to 2nd april, Day of persons with autism, consists of documentary achivements from Belgrade Film Festival for and by people with disabilities- BOSIFEST . The organizator is non-governmental organization “New chance” from Herceg Novi that has ambition to make regional film festival next year with the BOSIFEST.

“This promotion makes me happy, because of the cooperation of civil sector from Belgrade with our town that is in very delicate, complex and insufficiently treated problems of people with disabilities and also because it aims us with films to understand each other better. “ – said Dejan Mandic, mayor of Herceg Novi, at the opening ceremony.

The selector of the promotion and the director of BOSIFEST, Darko Ivic, believes that it is possible that in Herceg Novi can be founded regional festival for people with disabilities.

“This is a test to see how people react. Main goal of BOSIFEST is to awaken empathy in young people, to return values that everyone lost a little bit. This is the right way to inform young people about problems of people with disabilities through film. It is better to introduce them with the problem through visual approach than on the five or ten grandstands”- said Ivic.

Documentary films with people with disabilities as theme are made very professionaly. They were evaluated by jury Sijan, Golubovic, Mihailovic.

“The idea of BOSIFEST is to interest and non-governmental organizations and also people with disabilities them selves to do films and to make some stories. The piont is that they can not be directors or camermans and they have tro cooperate with the professinals.”- said Ivic.

Guests of the promotion were associations from surroundings, from Metkovic and also kids from Resource Center from Kotor. BOSIFEST is organized by Hendi Centar Koloseum, fifth year in a row.
