BRIDGE of ARTS is a multiformat event comprising three directions: a motivational film festival, a business forum and a number of sport events accompanied by city holidays, excursions, spectacular concerts and shows. Russian tourism and travel film competition “Russia Inspires!” will be conducted within the frameworks of the festival for the first time. The program will include films depicting sights of various regions of Russia.

Unlike private screenings BRIDGE of ARTS encourages audience interaction. All the festival events are open for both citizens and guests. Invited sport and cinema celebrities will not only mark the prestige of the event but will actively participate in masterclasses, film presentations, autograph and photo sessions and share their personal success stories.

Overcoming challenges and moving towards positive changes in life constitute the central theme of the festival. The basic principles promoted by the festival are self-motivation, healthy lifestyle and desire to cooperate. Motivational films are the inspirational ones. These films encourage viewers to look up to main characters and enjoy life.
