As the students of Radio, TV and Cinema we are able to develop projects and implement these projects thanks to the opportunities and education provided by our university. During my education here, I have had two short films and one documentary film, and I have taken part in many short film projects of my friends. It is very important for me that I have been selected to film school among many students. I will represent EUL at the festival in Antalya and I am very happy to be involved in this project, and I would like to thank our university and instructors.
