2006_Belgrade

From December 08 - 14, 2006 one of the largest European underwater film contests, the  “10th. International Underwater Film Festival - Belgrade” (http://www.kpa.co.yu) opened its doors. From 123 movies of 22 countries, 24 movies were  awarded. The movies were presented to more than 6000 visitors within one week. Even our movie “The secret of Tulamben” received an award. Our experience as “Newcomer” in the international  underwater film community was overwhelming and amazing. Organisation, schedule and especially the very deep and friendly hospitality made this festival to become a great success for all participiants.
