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.

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!

Huge thanks to the fortune teller and healer Lilia!!!!

A huge thank you to the fortune teller and healer Lilia!!!! She has the gift of clairvoyance and helps with love affairs. My mother went to her and she saved her from a curse, so I decided to turn to her too, and it was a good decision. Firstly, she sees the past, the present, and your problem (my mother and I didn't tell her anything; she told us all the details). Secondly, she cleanses people and removes negativity. And she helped me overcome loneliness and brought my husband back to the family. I recommend her a hundred times over and will continue to recommend her to everyone here. I will leave her contact information: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433
 

She didn't let me give up.

I came to Lilya in a state of complete devastation. My husband had left, saying he'd "outgrown his family" and "needed something else." I cried every day, lost my appetite, and lost my purpose in life. Lilya listened, felt my pain, and immediately said, "This isn't the end. You've just drifted apart—in spirit. But that can be restored." At first, I didn't believe it. But she worked with me, gave me precise advice, performed an energy cleansing, and helped me get back to myself. Three weeks later, he contacted me himself. A month later, we were sitting at the same table and talking honestly for the first time in a long time. I sincerely believe that without Lilya, none of this would have worked out. Here are her contact details: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber), +19297133433 (regular call).
 

My husband left after 15 years of marriage... and came back

My husband and I lived together for 15 years. And suddenly - "I need to figure myself out", "I want to leave". It turned out that he was having an affair with a woman from work. I couldn't believe it. Everything was falling apart. I lost my appetite, slept poorly, couldn't look at myself in the mirror. I heard about Lilya in one of the Telegram groups. I wrote to her. She already understood everything by her voice. She said that she would do an energy correction and bring back the warmth between us. After 10 days, he started getting in touch, after 3 weeks - he came back. Now he is close, and we are working on our mistakes. Lilya didn't just bring him back - she gave me back the faith that love can be saved. Her contacts (+380638055486 - WhatsApp Viaiber; +19297133433 - regular communication)
