Özet: This article compares and contrasts the film festivals in Ankara with those in Istanbul, while at the same time attempting to analyze film festivals, their aims and purposes, their positions within the cultural industry as well as their importance for cities. How can festivals maintain their long term goals and demands from different stakeholders, without having to compensate from their own approach, stance and agendas?   The main purpose of this article is to open to discussion questions and comments with regards to the position of sponsors within the cultural sphere as a part of contemporary arts. Moreover the article will elaborate on the power relations within film festivals, which are important cultural capitals of cities, and how these relations are dissembled as well as ways in which festivals differ under Ankara and Istanbul identities.
