The Tourist Board of Zagreb has recently won the first prize for a tourism film at one of the most significant international tourism fairs, ITB, in Berlin. At ‘The Golden City Gate 2011’ competition, in which awards were given out in 12 categories, the Tourist Board of Zagreb won the first prize in the music video category, with their marketing video «Moonlight Sonata Zagreb». The video promotes Zagreb `s Upper Town. While Ana Rucner, a famous Croatian cellist, is performing Beethoven`s sonata on a white cello, the ballet champion of Zagreb`s Croatian National Theatre (HNK), Azamat Nabiullin, is dancing in the background. The executive producer of the video is Jakov Sedlar and it was choreographed by Almira Osmanović, the director of the ballet ensemble of the Croatian National Theatre in Split.
The 45 member jury proclaimed «Moonlight Sonata Zagreb» the best video because of, among other things, the well known music and attractive night scenes of the Croatian capital.
