25 years of the Sir Peter Ustinov Foundation:

A film that moves

The Sir Peter Ustinov Foundation is celebrating its 25th anniversary - an anniversary that shows how much can be achieved in a quarter of a century. Ali Taşbasi, chairman of the foundation, emphasizes the uniqueness of the foundation, which was founded by Sir Peter Ustinov and his son Igor. Their vision: A prejudice-free world made possible by education. In our new image film, Igor Ustinov speaks movingly about his father's legacy: "He was like bubbles in champagne, always keen to make other people's lives easier." This joy of life and dedication continue to shape the work of the foundation to this day.
