SEE a Paris
SEE a Paris - South East European Film Festival in Paris. Jordan Plevnes is founder and President of the festival "SEE a Paris".
SEE a Paris is a dedicated attempt of all the twelve South-East European countries to create a special contribution to the cultural unification of Europe as our common home. Dante Alighieri declared Paris to be the “universal spiritual heritage”; Jean Monnet said that if Europe was to be built again, it should definitely start with the culture, and Nicolas Bouvier wrote that “the Balkan is the heart of Europe” in his magnificent book “L’usage du mond”. Therefore, starting this April and following every spring in the future, this heart of Europe shall pulsate in Paris through the films of the SEE cinema.

OHRID ACADEMY OF HUMANISM
The Ohrid Academy of the Humanism is formed on 19.01.1991 by the publishing house MACEDONIA PRIMA and by one group of Macedonian intellectuals in cooperation with the famous archeologist from Ohrid, Pasko Kuzman, and the Macedonian writer, Jordan Plevnes. Its international activity in the past 15 years has been in the following fields:
Promotion of the Macedonian language within the frames of the Historia Аntica Мacedonica of most prominent works from Europe and the world, dedicated to the ancient tabernacles of the Macedonian civilization, contributing the world cultural heritage.
Publishing works which illuminate the period of the middle Ages, related to the living saints of the collective Macedonian memory, the students of Ss. Cyril and Methodius, who, in 1980, were announced as patrons of Europe by the Pope John Paul II, further more St. Climent and St. Naum as founders of the Middle Age school of Humanism in Ohrid- “The Balkan Venice” or “The Slovene Jerusalem”, where the first University was established in this part of Europe. It passed on the glory of Lichnidos - The City of light all around the world.
In 2000, The Ohrid Academy of Humanism begins with the bilingual edition “The Ohrid richness of Memory”, dedicated to the holiness of the Macedonian poetry and the Balkan literature of the 19th century. Every year in the House- Museum of Grigor Prlichev of Ohrid, visitors from different countries of the world have been presented so far: France, Belgium, Russia, Spain, Bulgaria, Albania, Canada. They hold speech for “The second Homer of the Balkan poetry”. In that way they develop the outstanding idea that “the beauty shall save the world”.
In January 2007, when the Ohrid Academy of the Humanism together with the municipality of the city of Ohrid (just before the publishing of the work of the great Japanese Humanist, Daisaku Ikeda “The dialogue about the life” in the edition of “Macedonia Prima”), brought an official decision: each year in January to give a world award of Humanism. This will bring a new tradition about the presence of this mythical Macedonian city in the world’s horizon of harmonization in the philosophical, religious, political and artistic sense of our epoch. The first announced winner was the holder of the dialogue among the civilizations in the world, Daisaku Ikeda. This tradition continued in past 3 years too. In 2008 award was given to Manoel De Oliveira, in 2009 to Aleksandar Slozenicyn and last years this award was for Ravi Shankar in 2010 and Peter Brook in 2011.
