50th Jubilee Struga Poetry Evenings, 2011
Balázs F. Attila készülő filmjéből adunk egy rövid ízelítőt. Ez év augusztusában tartották a jubileumi Sztrugai Nemzetközi Költészeti Estek rendezvénysorozatát, melynek során a világ minden tájáról meghívott költők megismerkedhettek Macedónia nevezetességeivel, majd saját nyelvükön felolvasták egy-egy költeményüket a nagyszabású műsorok keretében.http://vimeo.com/29168503
