Bojana Arsic, Faculty od special education and rehabilitation, first year student

I applied to volunteer at Bosifest, because I wanted to gain new experiences and acquaintances. I believe that in this way I can contribute the realization of this wonderful project, and at the same time improve my knowledge and skills.

Volunteering at BOSIFEST attracted me because I wanted  to gain practical knowledge and at the same time to help others. Orientation to the filmmaking art makes the experience extra interesting.

Next to the opportunity of learning something new and meeting interesting people, there's a beauty in helping others. Also, there are good movies involved.

Aleksandra Stefanovic, final year student of Faculty of Political science

For volunteering at the festival I applied because it allows me to do what I love (events organization), in the area that I am especially interested in (culture, film), and at the same time festival educates and encourages social responsibility. So far I have enjoyed every moment of working in organization, I met wonderful people, and meet the expectations that I had. And, the best thing is that the most interesting is yet to come.

Andjela Blagojevic, Faculty of filology, third year student

The  main reason I chose to volunteer at BOSIFEST is a wish to participate in a festival organization and  meet new people, and help at the same time. Never before have I volunteered, but I already like the idea of contributing to the realization of such an event.

I applied for volunteering at Bosifest to find out more about people with disabilities, to gain new experiences and to help other people. Opportunity to be a part of such manifestation  which combines art with a very serious topic is a great prilivege for me and I hope with my contribution to organization of this festival I successfully help those who need help the most.

Julija Jankovic, student of third year, russian language and literature

I applied for volunteering because I am interested in organization and that is something I would like to do in future. I am student of Russian language and I see this also as one interesting way to get in contact with Russians and to practice the language considering that there are movies of Russian authors. I also find interesting the theme of the movies. I think this is a great direction to go: lead the audience through the art of film and in that way make them to ask themselves what they know about people with disabilities.

Lena Simentić, student of Faculty of Political Sciences, 4^th year

When I found out about the Film Festival BOSIFEST I was immediately attracted by the idea of being part of his organisation. I am very pleased with the work so far, which gave me a lot of practical knowledge. I think this is unique festival which creatively illustrates the problem faced by people with disabilities and on the other side shows the everyday life of their lives.

Lija Stojkovic, first year student-Academy of Fine Arts

BOSIFEST is a unique film festival in Europe and in this region, which immediately attracted me to sign up for volunteering and thus gain new knowledge, experiences and friendships through all stages of the organization. I especially liked the mission of the festival and also the persistence of the organizers.

Petra Ugrcic, student of third year-faculty of Law

A wish to meet some new people I could learn from, while we contribute together to realisation of one cultural event; knowing how much we need something like this. Also, advantage is that BOSIFEST gives us a chance to be in position to wake up social responsibility concerning some problems people with disabilities face. Up to now, my experience with organizers of this festival is beyond my expectations. I Hope for some nice friendships after this film story.

Sofija Cupic, Faculty of filology, third year student

I applied to be a volunteer at BOSIFEST for many reasons and the main ones are the love I have for films and a wish to have a try at organizing a festival. Honestly, I was surprised to  find out that the only festival in this part of Europe that has the life and work of people with disabilities as a theme takes place here, in Serbia and I wanted to give my contribution. I wish to learn something new and meet new people.

Jelena Nikolic, Faculty of special education and rehabilitation, first year student

Since I started college my wish was to work as a volonteur in some organisation. Motive for volountering is, primerily to help people who need it more than anything, that makes me happy. I found out about your organisation over internet and gladly applied for volountering, work so far has given me a wonderful experience and i learned many interesting things and i hope that it continues in that matter.

Anja Gajic, first year student, Faculty of special education and rehabilitation

Volunteering at BOSIFEST has brought new experiences, acquaintances and each of the volunteers felt as a part of one great network that has helped creating this film festival.

Ana Madic, Medical school, final year

I aplied to be a volunteer at BOSIFEST  firstly because i wanted to help and assist in the organization of something so big and interesting. Being a volunteer for this festival represents for me a great privilege and pleasure. Expirience that volunteers get during preparation of festival and during fest is invaluable. You learn a lot of new things, you watch the movies which encourage you to think and improve both your mental and physical energy life. Next to experience, you get the motivation, energy and will.
