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. Marina Lagunova

How a clairvoyant helped me get my love back and improve my life
Girls, if you need to understand your relationship or predict the future, I advise you to contact this clairvoyant. I found her by chance, and after the first session I was shocked by how accurately she described my situation. I had problems in my relationship with a man, I did not know how to restore harmony and bring him back into my life. She helped me not only understand the reasons for our quarrels, but also suggested what needs to be done to improve the relationship. She does not intimidate, but gives real and practical advice. After some time, the relationship improved, and I returned my loved one. I am very glad that I found her! Her number: +16463779379.
I RECOMMEND A STRONG MAGICIAN!!! I will leave a review here, as I promised to give a report. In my life there was a man with whom I lived for 4 years. We loved each other and I was happy, I wanted a child from him. Then conflicts began and because of his betrayal and I drove him away. But I love him very much and I can not imagine my life without him. I TURNED TO A CLAIRVOYANT ON ADVICE. I will tell you briefly, the clairvoyant saw a lot of things in my life from a photo of me and him. She told me the reason why everything turned out this way for me. In the end, I asked her for help to get him back. I WANT TO LEAVE A REVIEW OF GRATITUDE, the clairvoyant helped me get him back and even more. I do not want to go into details, I recommend only her. I'll leave her phone number, I know that you need to call ONLY Viber or WhatsApp (+380638055486) and a regular phone +19297133433
I never thought this would happen to me. My husband and I had been together for ten years, and then, out of the blue, he just left. Without a fight, without warning, he simply vanished from our lives. He didn't answer my calls, blocked me everywhere, and I learned of the divorce from his lawyer. My heart was broken. I went to every fortune teller, every healer, even a famous witch. No one could really understand what had happened. They just shook their heads and said there was no solution, or that their understanding of the situation was completely unclear. I was in despair until I accidentally stumbled upon the contact information of the magician Alexander. I messaged him on Viber at +380971792179, almost without hope for a miracle. But during the diagnosis, something happened that shocked me to the core. He didn't ask anything, nothing at all! He described our entire situation himself, telling us what happened and when, even naming the person who, it turned out, "advised" my husband to leave. It wasn't just fortune-telling; it was pure clairvoyance. Alexander saw everything, as if he were watching a recording of the events. After the diagnosis, I immediately asked for the work to be done. And then something incredible happened. I thought it would take a long time, but two weeks later, my husband messaged me. He wanted to meet. When he came, it was clear he himself didn't understand what was happening to him. He couldn't explain why he had done what he had done. Gradually, everything got better. We are back together, and our family has become stronger than ever. Alexander gave me my husband and my normal life back—I will be eternally grateful to him. I highly recommend him.
My husband and I lived together for 10 years... I believed that we had a strong family, that the difficulties we had gone through together had only hardened us. But everything collapsed suddenly. He changed... became cold, distant... And then I found out about her. A mistress. Young, daring, without a shred of conscience. She called me brazenly, laughed, threw insults in my face. She was destroying my family, my soul, my life. I cried at night, prayed, did not know why all this was happening to me. The pain was so strong that it seemed I simply could not stand it. The last hope was the fortune teller Martha, whom a friend told me about. I came to her, broken, with my hands down. And she looked at me and understood everything without words. I did not have to say anything... she herself told me about our life. Calmly, with kindness, she began to work. I did a love spell on that woman, a cleansing... and most importantly, I brought my husband back to the family. He came. With tears. With remorse. He said that he was in a fog, as if under someone else's influence. Now he is nearby, holding my hand, hugging our daughter. And I... I still can't believe that this is my life again. Thank you Marfa! She saved my family! Saved me! Her number is +380931150260 Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram
