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

Varya is a bright person. She didn't just bring her husband back; she helped bring his family back. Her number is +380632574828 (Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram).
Honestly, I didn't used to believe in molfars or any rituals. I always thought they were nonsense, self-hypnosis, and all that. But when my husband left the family, leaving me with a child and a bunch of questions about why, I was ready to grasp at any straw. We'd been together for eight years, and then suddenly there was coldness, alienation, another woman... I was simply beside myself. A friend recommended that I contact the molfarka Varya. She said she doesn't perform black magic, but works through the energy of the family line and cleanses relationships. I wrote to her with distrust, even a little shame. But Varya immediately spoke kindly, explaining that everything can be fixed if there are feelings, it's just that everything is confused right now. She performed a ritual to restore the connection, gave me advice on how to behave, what words to say, what not to do. And most importantly, she calmed me down. Within a few days, I felt as if a burden had been lifted from my soul. A couple of weeks later, my husband wrote to me himself. Then he came. We talked calmly, without tears or shouting. Now we live together, and I see that he's my warm, caring self again, as if all the bad has disappeared. I don't know how it works, but after Varya, there's peace in the house again, the child is happy, and every day I thank fate that I decided to write to her. Varya is a bright person. She didn't just bring my husband back, she helped bring our family back. Her number is +380632574828 (Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram)
He left for another. Younger. I am 6 years older than him, and he always noticed it... I was silent when he said he didn't love me. Silently I packed his things. And then I just stayed in an empty apartment, with a ring on my finger and tears on my cheeks. My friend said: "Write to Lilya. She knows how to get me back." I didn't believe it... but I wrote. He came back 5 days later. He said he thought about me every day. He cried. He asked for forgiveness. I don't know what Lilya did, but it was a real miracle... Lilya, you are not just a woman - you are an angel. Her contacts: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber), +19297133433 (regular call).
Thanks to Lilia for her help – even skeptics make mistakes sometimes.
I'll be honest—I've always been wary of clairvoyants. But when my family situation became critical, I decided to try everything. I turned to Lilia and was surprised by how accurately she described my life. We had several sessions, and within a week I saw changes: my husband started contacting me, showing interest in me, and seeking meetings. A month later, he himself asked me to come back. I don't know how it works, but it did. I thank Lilia for her help—even skeptics make mistakes sometimes. I'll leave you her contact information: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433
Lily truly sees, feels and speaks only to the point.
I found Lilia almost by accident, but now I understand – there are no accidents. She listened carefully, laid out my cards, and described my situation so accurately that I was simply speechless. The most incredible thing is that she helped me get my husband back, even though I had almost lost hope. Lilia truly sees, feels, and speaks only to the point. I am so grateful to her! Her phone number is +380638055486, she has Viber and WhatsApp, and she also has another US number: +19297133433.
