The Turkish capital's Uçan Süpürge (Flying Broom) International Women's Film Festival, an annual film extravaganza devoted in its entirety to female filmmakers from around the world, will unveil its 16th edition on May 9.



The Flying Broom, one of Turkey's two women's film festivals along with Filmmmor, will host a total of 106 films from 47 countries, including Palestine, India and Iran, from May 9 to 16.



The festival will see a gala event on May 9 at the Ankara Opera House with the attendance of many professionals from the art community. Actresses Perihan Savaş and Zeynep Aksu will be presented honorary awards, while folk singer Suzan Kardeş, who worked as a make-up artist for many years in the film industry, will receive the Bilge Olgaç Achievement Award. The gala event will also honor veteran actress Yıldız Kenter.



This year's festival will offer simultaneous screenings at eight universities in the Turkish capital in addition to workshops and Q&A sessions held in different venues across the city. The official website of the festival, festival.ucansupurge.org, will provide information about the film schedule and other side events starting from Wednesday. (Cihan/Today's Zaman)
