I am very happy that the film" Holy Bread "was present at this festival. I wish Rahim was alive and there, but unfortunately, fate did not allow him to do so. I hope no human be killed or died, or even frozen in the cold because of bread, and we will no longer see Kulbar. I hope that our future documentaries and films will all be about the peaceful reconciliation and coexistence of human beings."
