The Month of Kazakhstani Cinematography has kicked off in Baku with an open-air screening of "Dos Mukasan” musical drama, Kazinform News Agency reports citing the Ministry of Culture and Information.
Directed by Aidyn Sakhaman, the film is devoted to the legendary Kazakh vocal and instrumental ensemble that became a symbol of the epoch and the founder of Kazakh rock.
The musical drama is based on a true story and features the history of the ensemble's creation by students of the Polytechnic Institute.

The event continued with a concert program with the participation of talented Azerbaijani musicians and singers.
Ambassador of Kazakhstan to Azerbaijan Alim Bayel, representatives of diplomatic corps, mass media, Kazakh diaspora in Baku as well as amateurs of Kazakhstan’s cinematography attended the event.
