A celebratory forum was held at the "Ashgabat" cinema to honor the recent international accolades received by the film "The Composer." Produced with the support of the Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov Charitable Foundation for Children in Need of Care, the cinematic work has earned distinguished awards from the International Organization of Turkic Culture (TURKSOY). The event featured a specialized exhibition in the lobby, highlighting the creative journey and the global impact of modern Turkmen cinematography.
Following successful screenings during the Days of Turkmen Cinema in Ankara, Turkey, the film secured two major honors from TURKSOY. The sponsoring Charitable Foundation received the "Great Two-Winged Falcon" special award for its role in the film's production, while composer Kerim Berdimuhamedov was presented with the "Golden Winged Horse" award for his exceptional musical score. Speakers at the ceremony emphasized that these awards underscore the growing prestige of the nation’s arts on the world stage and celebrate the unique synthesis of music and film.
"The Composer" has a proven track record of success, having previously claimed top prizes at the "Gorkut Ata" festival and the Eurasian "Diamond Butterfly" film festival. The narrative focuses on the profound legacy of Turkmen musical traditions, using evocative melodies to drive the emotional arc of the characters. This cinematic project is viewed as a significant contribution to the preservation of the shared cultural heritage of the Turkic-speaking world, blending traditional values with contemporary filmmaking excellence.

Specialists at the International Science and Technology Park of the Academy of Sciences of Turkmenistan, led by Durdymyrat Gadamov and Altyn Rahmanova, have developed a new-generation bio-agent designed to neutralize soil methane emissions. The solution utilizes local bacteria adapted to the regional climate, which harness methane monooxygenase to convert methane into carbon dioxide and water.
Methane is a major contributor to global warming, with a heat-trapping capacity in the atmosphere significantly higher than that of carbon dioxide. The newly developed bio-agent features high efficiency in industrially congested areas, cost-effectiveness through the use of local raw materials, and complete safety for human health and the environment.
This scientific breakthrough aligns with Turkmenistan's sustainable development strategy, supporting its commitments under the Global Methane Pledge to enhance environmental oversight in the energy sector.
