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

Professional fortune telling and situational diagnosis
There are situations when simple conversations and advice don't help. Relationships are falling apart, a loved one leaves, money isn't holding up, and there's a constant sense of anxiety and a feeling that everything is going wrong. In such moments, it's important to understand the cause, not just endure. My name is Victoria, a clairvoyant and tarot reader. I help people, both in person and remotely, navigate life's challenges, remove negative influences, and change the situation for the better. I work calmly, without pressure or unnecessary promises. I examine the situation deeply—through fortune-telling and diagnostics—and explain in simple terms what's happening and the best course of action. How I help in practice: - When relationships are falling apart: If a loved one has left, grown cold, or there are constant arguments or outside interference, I help you understand the cause, remove the negative influence, and restore warmth, trust, and feelings. - When life hits a rough patch: If everything seems to be falling apart, you're unlucky, your money isn't holding up, your plans are falling apart, I look for what's blocking your path and help remove the energetic barriers. - When you feel someone else's influence: I work with the evil eye, envy, curses, and heavy energy that has been lingering for years. I cleanse and protect you so the situation doesn't recur. - When you need an honest answer: Through fortune-telling, I reveal what's really going on, what events lie ahead, whether you should wait for a person, change jobs, or make an important decision. - When you're lacking strength and energy: I help with constant fatigue, anxiety, apathy, inner emptiness, when you "don't want anything" and have no inner support. - When your personal destiny isn't working out: I work with loneliness, repeated failures in love, fear of relationships, and help open the way to family happiness. - When protection is needed: I help you close yourself off from envious people, ill-wishers, gossip, and other people's negative interference. Every person and every situation is unique. I tailor the work to your specific needs and never do anything unnecessary. If you feel stuck, write or call, and we'll find a way out together.

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Lilia Pavlovna, a person with a big heart and amazing understanding.
I want to express my deepest gratitude to Lilia Pavlovna, a person with a big heart and amazing understanding. When my husband left me for another woman, it was a real blow. I didn't know what to do or how to move on. At that moment, I was advised to contact Lilia, and I haven't regretted it. She helped me understand the reasons behind what was happening and gave me wise advice that literally opened my eyes. After talking with her, I felt relief, calm, and the strength to fight for my happiness. Over time, the situation changed—my husband returned, our relationship improved, and our home became warm and peaceful again. Thank you, Lilia Pavlovna, for helping people not give up and find a way out when it seems all is lost. I'll leave my contact information for anyone who really needs help (+380638055486 for WhatsApp and Viber, +19297133433 for regular calls).
