Schoolgirl from Dagestan to perform on Red Square
As to Mikailova, as part of the contest, she performed with a fragment from the Yuri Yakovlev’s story "Persecution on the Red." "I chose this particular work because it was about happiness. We see so much cruelty and evil in this world. In their routine life people often forget to simply enjoy the wonderful feelings. I decided to share my impressions on this literary work, so that others feel the same" – the girl said.
Mikailova shared that she found new friends from other regions. "If speak on the contest, I did not have any hopes, because I knew how strong the participants were. In preparation for the contest, I was surrounded by peers and my friends constantly supported me to reach the goal. Artek is an ideal place for this" - Mikailova noted.
This year the contest final was broadcasted live. The qualifying stages with participation of 255 contestants from different regions of the country were held within two weeks before the final.
