Representatives from scientists, cultural figures, diplomatic missions and international organizations were invited to attend the screening.
French ambassador to Uzbekistan His special and plenipotentiary ambassador Olelia Bushedz expressed her views on the film.
"I am very happy to be one of the guests at the premiere of this film, especially this is a Uzbekistan-French project. The exhibition on Uzbekistan that the Louvre is preparing for, and the content is related to this film, which will open in November this year," said Olelia Bushedz.
Olelia Bushedz said that so far, most French people only know that Uzbekistan is the most populous country in Central Asia, a country that is rapidly developing and enjoying political prestige in the region, and has famous cities Samarkand and Bukhara . The French had only heard of these places, and they were more eager to see them with their own eyes, and on the ancient caravan routes, these places were linked to rich culture and history. This is also a major reason why the flow of tourists to Uzbekistan has increased year by year. Now 20,000 people have come to visit here every year.
"I can say with certainty that in the near future, due to the exhibition of the Louvre Museum, more foreigners will come to Uzbekistan to travel because 10 million people visit the Louvre every year, which is not only from France and neighboring countries, but also from art lovers from all over the world!" said Olelia Bushedz.
