Cinema has always been a mirror reflecting life’s complexities, and occasionally, it serves as a silent witness revealing profound truths. On December 25, the Nizami Cinema Center in Baku hosted a remarkable celebration of storytelling and creativity. Organized by the Azerbaijan Film Union, the event marked the conclusion of the “Dreams of Color in Black and White Letters” project, showcasing the short feature film Məhkəmə (The Trial), directed by Rovshan Isakh. More than a film premiere, the evening celebrated a collaborative journey of learning and artistic achievement.

The glamour of the silver screen often conceals the unspoken struggles of actresses, especially as they age. Behind the bright lights and applause lies a reality marked by stereotypes, societal pressures, and diminishing opportunities. For many actresses, the passage of time not only challenges their personal identities but also threatens their professional survival in an industry fixated on youth and conventional standards of beauty.

In the bustling streets of Baku, where fashion is as dynamic as the city's skyline, a quiet revolution is taking place. Despite Azerbaijan's strides in waste management, the issue of clothing and textile waste persists, casting a long shadow over environmental progress.

Despite its rich historical past in Azerbaijan, donation culture faces numerous problems in modern times. Issues such as transparency in reaching the target audience, declining public trust, and the absence of sustainable support mechanisms are major challenges in this field. Additionally, the weak promotion of donation culture prevents its broader acceptance and development within society. Both education and modern solutions are crucial to enhance the social impact of donations.
