New York Film Festival

The SR Socially Relevant Film Festival took place in New York. The mission of the film festival is to highlight filmmakers who tell compelling, socially relevant, human interest stories on a wide range of social issues, without resorting to violence or violent forms of storytelling.
 
The award ceremony took place at the National Arts Club (chaired by Nina Urban). In the presence of more than 140 people, including club members, directors, jury members and friends, the winners were announced, the 20 winners were awarded and trophies were presented in the form of a silk scarf donated by Lost Pattern.
SRFF's 2024 selection "Maya," directed by Julia Verdin, won the Vanya Ekserjian Award for Empowering Women and Girls, an award presented by festival founder Nora Armani in memory of her cousin, who was the victim of a hate crime against a woman.
The main prize in the “Narrative Feature Film” category went to the film “Valley of Exiles” directed by Anna Far, and a special jury prize was given to 2 films: “I Am Gitmo” by Philip Diaz and “From Life to Life” by Beka Sikharulidze. The films “ORA” by Michel Garcia and “Blockade” by Hakob Melkonyan were presented in the “Best Documentary Feature Film” category, and the special jury prize in the documentary feature category went to the film “DEPO: Reflection of Boijmans” by Sonya Herman Doltz. Awards were presented in the categories of Narrative Short, Documentary Short, Best Actor, Best Actress, Women Film Critics Circle Award, IndiePix Unlimited Vision Award, Best Screenplay, etc. d. “We are proud that over the past 11 years we have had the opportunity to present more than 700 socially relevant films from 40 countries. This year’s selection includes 53 incredible films from around the world.” SRFF was founded by actress and filmmaker Nora Armani in 2013 in response to the proliferation of violence and violent forms of storytelling in media and entertainment. After a family tragedy that cost the lives of two of her dearest and closest people—cousin Vanya and uncle Jack Exerjian—Armani founded the festival to meaningfully honor their memory. SRFF believes in the power of cinema to raise awareness of social issues and promote positive social change. Topics such as climate change, family and adoption, LGBTQ rights, home and health, disability, incarceration and freedom, New York City, racism and culture are of interest.

How a clairvoyant helped me remove a family curse

I suffered from failure for a long time, and everything I did always ended in failure. I decided to consult a clairvoyant, and she discovered a curse on my family line, passed down from generation to generation. She performed a powerful ritual to remove the family curse, and soon real changes began to occur in my life. My work increased, my relationships improved, and old problems disappeared. I am very grateful for her help. Contact number: +16463779379.
 

Review of a clairvoyant – she helped me get my loved one back

I want to leave a review about a wonderful clairvoyant and tarot reader whom I turned to during a very difficult time. My relationship with my loved one was crumbling, and there was a lot of pain, hurt, and misunderstanding. I found this woman by chance, through a recommendation. She is very kind and attentive, and immediately understood my situation, as if she knew everything in advance. She did a tarot reading and then removed the negativity that, as it turned out, was interfering with our relationship. Two weeks later, my loved one contacted me, and we made up. Things are much better now! Here's her number: +1 (646) 377-9379 – I highly recommend her to anyone looking for real help, not just a "chat."
 

Molfar Andriy took over our homeland.

It would have been different in another life when my friend, Natalya, took the speeches, took the children and just went. She filed for separation, and it seemed to me that my world was destroyed. I spent months not finding my place, trying to talk to her, but she was like a wall. Our children, son and daughter, also suffered. I realized this and felt hopeless. Then I decided to go wild to Andriy’s molfar. I arrived before the new one, and this man... immediately cut me to the bone. He didn’t ask me about anything, but found out what had happened, naming names and important dates. This was not just hostile, but kindly shocking. Andriy waited a moment to help, but went ahead, which would be required at any time and in my opinion. Believe in Andriy’s strength, after such a diagnosis, it was lost, and often not food, fragments of smut, so that there was a result. Prote everything was supposed to be swedishly thought out. For many years now, we have been encouraging contacts via WhatsApp at Andria +380932169225. We conducted singing rituals that were based on ancient magical traditions and gave me the benefit of my behavior. After a couple of years, Natalya started working on the phone. Just like that. Vona said that she wanted to get together. We talked, and she cried, saying that she herself didn’t understand why she had done this, so that no one would hang around her. A week later she turned home, and we began to live together. Our hundreds have become more valuable, no matter what. Molfar Andriy took over our homeland. I will forever be grateful for those who turned me away from my squad and my children. If necessary, don’t waste an hour and write to Andriy at your number. We will definitely show you how best to do it, or even detail how you can ask for help.
 

Thank you, Lilia, for saving my family!

I thought our marriage was ruined forever. My husband left, leaving a void and pain in our home. When I turned to clairvoyant Lilia, she immediately saw the root of our problems and helped fix everything. After her work, my husband returned of his own accord, as if he realized he was losing what was most precious to him. Now we have love and understanding again. Thank you, Lilia, for saving my family!

Clairvoyant Natalia Valerievna +380667493555 review

I've consulted many clairvoyants, but none have helped me as much as Natalya Valeryevna. She accurately predicted the future, including on issues I hadn't mentioned. She not only told me what awaited me, but also suggested a ritual that helped me get rid of negativity and restore harmony in my personal life. I was amazed by her accuracy and understanding of the situation. I felt better when I understood how to move forward. Now I'm sure that Natalya Valeryevna is the one who can help!
