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.

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

Ladies, this might be helpful to someone. I debated for a long time whether to write or not, but I finally decided to share. I contacted her because of love—my boyfriend had left me, and I was desperate. She looked into the situation and said there was still room for improvement. She worked on restoring our relationship and removing negativity. After a while, we started communicating normally again. She also helped me with my health—after her work, I really felt better.

There are moments in everyone's life when the ground slips out from under their feet, and the usual methods of solving problems no longer work. During such periods, it is important to find support and trust someone who can see the hidden causes of what is happening. Clairvoyant, healer, and herbalist Tatyana helps people find a way out of the most difficult life situations. When long-standing relationships crumble, the path to success closes, financial success fades, health declines, and a constant sense of anxiety or inner impasse sets in, professional help helps restore balance and confidence in the future. Tatyana's love magic is aimed not simply at bringing someone back, but at deeply restoring the energetic connection between partners. Often, relationships disintegrate not because of simple grievances, but because of someone else's envy, the evil eye, or deliberate interference. In such cases, the warmth in the couple fades, giving way to coldness, aggression, and alienation. Tatyana harmonizes relationships, reawakens lost feelings, and performs gentle love spells, which are individually tailored and work without harm or sin. For an accurate analysis of the situation, she uses Tarot card readings, mirror readings, and the Book of Destiny. In addition to family matters, Tatyana effectively removes severe and long-standing curses, ancestral programs, and thefts that have blocked a person's development for years. After cleansing rituals, energy is restored, strength and clarity of thought are restored. Particular attention is paid to protecting family and children. Tatyana cleanses the home of negativity, removes fear and envy, and strengthens the energy field of mother and child, restoring peace and healthy sleep. In her practice, the healer combines ancient prayer recitations, ancient psalms, herbalism, and powerful protective methods, such as the magic of King Solomon and the seven-headed protection. When working with serious illnesses, special ritual transfers to dolls are used, which rid the person of destructive energy. For those striving for success, Tatyana offers business magic tools that help eliminate competitors, remove financial blockages, and open the way to prosperity. Sometimes, simply removing the accumulated layer of negativity and establishing reliable energetic protection is enough for a person to once again fill their life with light, love, and inner strength.

Returned my beloved and removed the curse - Maria really helps
After breaking up with my ex, I started having problems—not just in my personal life, but in my overall well-being. I was constantly having breakdowns, feeling tired, and having bad luck. I turned to Maria on her advice, and it was one of the best decisions I could have made. She immediately told me I was negatively affected—a strong evil eye had been cast on me. She did a cleansing and performed several prayer rituals. Everything was very calm, with explanations. She works only with white magic, without fear or risk. And most importantly, a few weeks later, my ex contacted me himself. We're back together, and our relationship has even gotten stronger. Maria is a very bright and strong person. I thank her from the bottom of my heart. +18473130212 Viber
