Butimar Productions is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the preservation of the artistic and cultural traditions of the East. Through the production of documentary films, musical recordings, and performances; presentations of visual art; translations of literary works, and the organization of intercultural activities, we will bring this rich heritage to Western audiences, enriching the lives of current and future generations. We seek to promote cultural diversity in the face of the powerful forces of global cultural homogenization that threaten to drive unique forms of art, music, and literature to extinction.
