The aim of the 11th edition of this organization, which was held simultaneously in the container cities established after the earthquake, is to heal the wounds of the people by using the healing power of art. The festival, which was organized with limited means and under the criticism of "How can you organize a film festival at a time like this!", attracted many participants from Turkey and abroad. While the participants stayed in container cities set up in different parts of the city, the people of Hatay forgot their pain for a moment and mobilized to make this event happen with all their hospitality. When we move away from the seven-day festival, the positive mood disappears and we are confronted with the realities of the lives affected by the earthquake.
