Kyiv, April 26, 2016.<\/strong> <\/em>II International Short Story Festival \u201cIntermezzo\u201d devoted to Ukrainian writer Mykhailo Kotsyubynsky will take place in Vinnytsia on May 26-29. Festival\u2019s motto is \u201cPrivate seas, common shores\u201d. \u201cThis year the sea will be the main motive of the festival \u2013 personal sea, the sea that divides and unites, the sea as a literary metaphor and the geographical sea that washes the Crimean peninsula,\u201d said Iryna Vikyrchak, Director of the International Short Story Festival \u201cIntermezzo\u201d at a press briefing at Ukraine Crisis Media Center. The festival\u2019s program will include encounters with artists, literary readings by authors, lectures, discussions and transmedia performances, books presentations, evenings of poetry etc. A total of 40 events have been scheduled engaging 50 participants from Ukraine, Poland, the Czech Republic, Belarus, Italy and Armenia.<\/p>\n

The festival\u2019s program will focus on the theme of Crimea and Crimean Tatars \u2013 on the problem of peninsula\u2019s cultural identity, historic fate of the Crimean peoples, on the theme of home lost and rediscovered. The organizers plan to continue the dialogue between the Ukrainian and the Tatar culture that was started by Crimean novels of Mykhailo Kotsyubynsky. It is also planned to actualize the theme of Crimea and better introduce the guests to the culture of the peninsula\u2019s indigenous people. It is especially topical for Vinnytsia region where many internally displaced are currently residing. \u201cSuch cultural ties will enhance closer cooperation between the local communities and internally displaced, so that they are able to become its part and get integrated into it to the maximum. We will overcome all social trouble through such processes,\u201d noted Tamila Tasheva, co-founder of \u201cCrimeaSOS\u201d civic initiative.<\/p>\n

The festival\u2019s film program will be opened by \u201cThe Tatar Triptych\u201d film by Oleksandr Muratov in Crimean Tatar language with Ukrainian subtitles. \u201cHaytarma\u201d by Akhtem Seitablayev, \u201cSong of Songs\u201d by Eva Neymann, \u201cCrimean Stories\u201d by Nariman Aliev will be also presented. The program will also include the night of short films with both international and Ukrainian pieces screened, presentation of film adaptations of various stories and novels by young film directors. Organisers also plan to have discussion \u201cFrom A to the film\u201d. \u201cWe will be reading the scripts, then watching short films and discussing how films are born out of literature as well as what problems with scripts the Ukrainian film industry has,\u201d said Valeria Sochyvets, curator of the festival\u2019s film program, co-founder of \u201cSUK\u201d NGO (Contemporary Ukrainian Cinema).<\/p>\n

The project \u201cThe Island of Europe\u201d will be implemented at the festival, it is called to draw attention to the literature of European peoples that are small in number to which the Crimean Tatar literature also belongs. \u201cLiterary heritage of Crimean Tatar people comprises poetry, prose, drama and journalism of a fascinating level. Kotsyubynsky is writing about the progressive Crimean Tatar world of the end of the XIX century, similarly progressive must have been other \u2018small literatures\u2019 that we are not used to pay attention to,\u201d noted Oleksandr Vesheleni, festival program director.<\/p>\n

In the Polish part of the festival\u2019s program works of J\u00f3zef Konrad Korzeniowski \u2013 classic of marine literature with Polish roots and Ukrainian past will be discussed. Grzegorz Jankowicz, program director of the Konrad Festival held in Krakow, will be among the Polish guests. \u201cHe is a very interesting personality, he represents both English and Polish literature, he is a symbol of uniting various nationalities, approaches and visions,\u201d said Ewa Figel, Director of the Polish Institute in Kyiv.<\/p>\n

During the festival days artists will present the finalized wall painting in the Vinnytsia library made as part of the project \u201cCrimea-Ukraine: the path\u201d. \u201cThe idea is to leave bright visual reminders of Crimea created by artists in public space of various cities. They would involve symbols and Crimean ornaments,\u201d said Tetyana Manzyuk, event coordinator of \u201cArtPole\u201d artistic agency. \u201cThis way we want to show the ties that exist between us and that they are stronger than the circumstances that divide us.\u201d Oleksandr Vesheleni added that it is planned to establish the Center for Crimean-Podillya dialogue based on the library.<\/p>\n

Annual International Short Story Festival \u201cIntermezzo\u201d is organized by NGO \u201cInstitute for Cultural Management\u201d, Vinnytsia city council and the Museum of Mykhailo Kotsyubynsky in Vinnytsia in partnership with a series of other NGOs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
