"The days of the XVII festival" PeterKiT "have flown by." This is a storm of emotions, a lot of impressions, I want all the participants to express their gratitude for the palette of genres that you have presented with your works. For the fact that you raised issues of the struggle between good and evil, the theme of love, for covering the civil human position in your works. And I congratulate all the participants, regardless of who became the winner! This is an incredible platform, a platform for starting where you can show all your talent, and, of course, I would like to wish you creative success, and in no case dwell on what has been achieved.
