YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 19, NOYAN TAPAN. Young film producer Gor Baghdasarian has winned the contest of short films under the title Tolerance Without Limits for his scenario Playing Ground. The summing up of the results of the contest Tolerance Without Limits and the prize distribution ceremony took place at the UN Office on November 16, on the occasion of the International Tolerance Day. "Tolerance is a crammed property, a virtue that requires honest efforts from each person. Time, as well as readiness is required for forming real tolerance," Consuelo Vidal, the UN Resident Coordinator and the UNDP Resident Representative to Armenia, said. The jury had selected 7 out of 12 bids introduced for the contest. According to Susanna Haroutiunian, the Art Director of the Golden Apricot (Voske Tsiran) international film festival, all seven projects having passed preliminary selection were very interesting and worthy of being shot. "Really, it was very difficult to choose the best one, and we will try to exert all possible efforts to fulfil the other projects as well," she emphasized. The contest was held on the initiative of the Directors Without Limits organization and the Golden Apricot Cinema Development Fund, with the support of the UNDP Armenian Office and OSCE Yerevan Office.
