The Kazakh filmMūğalım has been selected for the New Directors competition at the 74th San Sebastián International Film Festival in Spain, one of the world’s most prestigious A-category festivals, Qazinform News Agency reports.

Sundance Film Festival’s upcoming first edition in Boulder, Colorado, (January 21-31, 2027) will bring expanded competition sections, a new Fipresci Award, and the return of New Frontier after a two-year pause.
