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

I have been looking for a long time for someone who could really help in difficult situations and provide precise answers to the questions that worried me. There were difficulties in life, including in personal relationships and career, and I also felt some kind of energy blockage. At some point, I decided to contact Daria, and it turned out to be the right decision. The first thing that struck me was how accurately Daria described my current situation. She told me things that I did not even voice, and gave answers to all my questions. Right from the first fortune-telling, it was clear that she had unique abilities. Everything that she predicted about the future came true with amazing accuracy, and I felt much better after I received answers to my questions. But most importantly, Daria helped me get rid of the damage that was on me. For a long time, I could not understand why everything in life was so difficult and no matter how hard I tried, nothing worked. Daria immediately said that there was negative energy on me, and performed a powerful ritual to remove the damage. After that, I felt incredible relief, as if a weight had been lifted from my shoulders. And life began to improve. In addition, Daria helped me get back a person with whom I had lost contact a long time ago. I can’t even explain how it happened, but everything she talked about became reality. We are back in touch with this person, and our relationship began to develop in a completely new direction. I thought that everything was lost, but thanks to her help, everything became different. Daria is not just a clairvoyant, she is a truly powerful person who works for results. I have seen how she helps people, and I can confidently say that she is one of the best. All her predictions come true, her advice is valuable, and the energy work she does is incredibly powerful. If you are looking for a person who will not just tell you something general, but will really help you understand a difficult situation, bring harmony back to your life and take a step towards a bright future - contact Daria.
