Organised by the Creative Europe MEDIA desks in Bulgaria, Croatia and Slovenia, the event Europe Day – Celebrating Our Stories! aims to highlight four successful films supported by Creative Europe MEDIA. With the Creative Europe MEDIA support, that encourages co-productions, films from countries with small cinematographies can achieve that much visibility and competitiveness, as well as to cross-border.

On 9 May at 20:00 CET, three Creative Europe MEDIA supported films will be made available online for free, for a period of 72 hours, for film lovers in Bulgaria, Croatia and Slovenia.

All the films were produced by the three participating countries and have won awards at international film festivals. Successful at home and abroad, they show us that great art can be created through collaboration by sharing ideas, skills and means.

Additionally, on 9 May at 19:00 CET, the Creative Europe MEDIA Desk Croatia together with the Kino Edison in Karlovac will organise a physical screening of the film Vasil  written and directed by Avelina Prat and produced by Miriam Porte (Distinto Films) / Spain) and co-produced by Mina Mileva, Vesela Kazakovaat (Activist 38 / Bulgaria) at the Kino Edison in Karlovac, Croatia in partnership with Europe Direct Karlovac.
