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.

Experience of fortune telling on cards

I turned to a clairvoyant on the advice of a friend. Honestly, I never believed in such things before. But when she started the layout, she immediately touched on the most painful moments - about family and work. She even named the person with whom I had a conflict, I was simply stunned. Many pieces of advice helped, and now I understand why everything turned out this way for me. Now I treat fortune telling completely differently.

I am very happy that I found Lilia!

When everything was heading toward divorce, I didn't even believe it was possible to turn things around. But I met Lilia in New York, and she gave us a chance at a new life. She didn't just bring my husband back; she taught us to love and understand each other again. All those crises that seemed insurmountable, thanks to her advice, became simply stages that we went through together. I'm so happy I found Lilia!

Thank you clairvoyant Lilya with all my heart

After breaking up with my husband, I felt like everything was lost. My soul was hurting, I didn't know where to go. On advice, I turned to Lilya and that became a turning point. With her help, advice and rituals, my husband came back and our relationship became stronger. This is not just help, it's salvation. Thank you, Lilya!
