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

Review of a clairvoyant – she helped me get my loved one back
I want to leave a review about a wonderful clairvoyant and tarot reader whom I turned to during a very difficult time. My relationship with my loved one was crumbling, and there was a lot of pain, hurt, and misunderstanding. I found this woman by chance, through a recommendation. She is very kind and attentive, and immediately understood my situation, as if she knew everything in advance. She did a tarot reading and then removed the negativity that, as it turned out, was interfering with our relationship. Two weeks later, my loved one contacted me, and we made up. Things are much better now! Here's her number: +1 (646) 377-9379 – I highly recommend her to anyone looking for real help, not just a "chat."
After 20 years of marriage, I thought all was lost...
My husband and I became like neighbors. No heart-to-heart talks, no warmth, constant criticism. I was already considering divorce, but I decided to give it one last try and turned to Lilia. She didn't judge or offer "magic recipes"; she simply saw the real us. She said everything could be fixed if I really wanted it. My husband and I began to change. Slowly, but sincerely. A year has passed, and we are together again. Not just in the same house, but close in spirit. Thank you, Lilia. You see what others cannot see. Her contact information: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber), +19297133433

After my wife's betrayal, I was in despair. I loved her, but I could not forgive her. Living in such a state was unbearable. Lilia helped me understand my feelings, to see that old grievances and unresolved problems were behind the betrayal. She is not just a clairvoyant, she is a real psychologist and guide. Thanks to her support and rituals, my wife and I went through the crisis and saved our marriage. Her contacts (+380638055486 - this is her WhatsApp or Viber and there is a regular number where you can call her +19297133433)
Lily gave me back not only my husband, but also the reason to breathe.
I walked to Lilia with trembling hands, afraid to believe that anything could change. But she looked at me as if she saw all my pain at once. The rituals she performed seemed to lift a heavy layer of despair from me. And suddenly, my husband appeared at the door. He stood there, silent, and then said, “I feel bad without you. I tried to forget, but it didn’t work.” I can’t forget that moment. Lilia gave me back not only my husband, but also the reason to breathe. Her phone number is +380638055486, she also has Viber and WhatsApp, and another US number is +19297133433.
