of evening screenings in four different open-air places, such as the inner yard

An international jury composed by Vesselina Sarieva (cultural activist,

and Yovo Panchev (curator and artist, Bulgaria), will debut at the festival
choosing the VIDEOHOLICA 2010 Representative Selection.

In parallel with the evening screenings of the festival, daily presentations and

of single silent shots confined within duration of up to thirty seconds describing
brief visual impacts captured from everyday surroundings and minimalist poetic
