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.

With Lilia our family was literally resurrected!

With Lilya, our family has literally been resurrected! My husband and I were going through a crisis, and everything seemed hopeless. But thanks to Lilya and her incredible approach, our marriage has regained its harmony. She not only helped us understand each other, but also gave us tools that really work. We've found our way back to each other. Thank you for your wisdom, patience, and support, Lilya! I'll leave my contact information for anyone who really needs help (+380638055486 for WhatsApp and Viber, +19297133433 for regular calls).
 

Lily isn't just a clairvoyant. She's a sorceress.

I never thought I'd turn to a clairvoyant. But when the person I loved left, it was like a part of my soul was ripped out... Friends recommended Lilia, and I simply trusted her. During our first consultation, she accurately described everything that happened, without a single question. Three days later, he wrote back. And a week later, he was standing at the door with eyes full of regret. Now we're together, as if the separation never happened. Lilia isn't just a clairvoyant. She's a sorceress.

A review of a clairvoyant who helped me bring back my love and improve my relationship.

I decided to write this review because I want to recommend an amazing clairvoyant and tarot reader who truly helps in difficult situations. When I contacted her, my relationship with my boyfriend was on the verge of collapse. I tried to solve the problem myself, but things only got worse. Then someone recommended this woman to me, and I was right! She performed a diagnosis, and it turned out that there was a serious negative element in our relationship that was preventing us from being happy. She performed a ritual to restore love and remove a curse, and literally within a week, our relationship began to change. My partner began to show interest and care, and we began to understand each other much better. I am very grateful to this clairvoyant; she not only predicted the future but also helped restore harmony to my life. If you are experiencing relationship or personal problems, I recommend contacting her. Contact number: +16463779379. Thank you so much for your help!

My husband wanted to leave me for another woman – Lilia saved our marriage.

When my husband fell in love with another woman, I was shocked. My heart was breaking. I begged, fought, got angry... Nothing helped. He said he loved her. I don't know what would have happened if it weren't for Lilya. She helped me not only regain his attention, but also regain my own. Through spiritual work, cleansing, and Lilya's support, my husband returned home. Not out of guilt, but consciously. Now we are a couple on new terms, with respect. Lilya doesn't do magic for revenge—she works with souls. This is rare. Here are her contacts: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433 (regular call)
