https://media.am/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/golden_apricot_12_0.jpg600386Any major event that implies public involvement is eventually spread throughout social media. And it's successful when the event organizers provide the impetus for the dissemination. I'm speaking particularly about international festivals, competitions, or events with a specific duration. It's hard to understand why the Golden Apricot International Film Festival (GAIFF) doesn't try to actively use social media — to share festival films, photos of guests, short videos, and posts.
