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.

I recommend Lilia...

Girls!!! I want to recommend a girl named Lilia to you, who has the ability to predict the future. Honestly, I've always been skeptical of such people. But when I turned to Lilia, she said things about the past that few people knew. And that's not all)) She can help with personal matters too... In general, I recommend Lilia... +380638055486 +19297133433
 

Thanks to Lilia for her incredible support.

Thank you to Lilia for her incredible support. She didn't make empty promises; she helped me cleanse my soul of resentment and fear. When I became warm and alive, my husband took the plunge. He came home, and we started all over again. I'm so grateful. Here are her contact details: +380638055486 (her WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433 (USA)
 

Help of the magician New York

Sometimes there comes a time when the usual methods no longer work. A loved one becomes a stranger, relationships crumble or die out, luck fades, and anxiety and fatigue accumulate within. Talking, waiting, and trying to change things yield no results. In such situations, it is important to understand why exactly this is happening. Often, the cause is hidden deeper than it seems: accumulated negativity, energetic influence, or internal imbalance can subtly affect life and hinder progress. People seek help when: - A loved one has left or has cooled towards the relationship. - The same problems constantly recur in their personal life. - A feeling of loneliness, anxiety, and uncertainty appears. - Financial and life opportunities seem to pass them by. - They want to understand what lies ahead and what the right decision will be. What kind of help is provided: - Work with the love sphere - restoring relationships, returning a loved one, harmonizing feelings. - Energy cleansing - removing the evil eye, damage, and other people's negative influence, restoring balance. Fortune telling and situational analysis – Tarot card readings, analysis of the past and possible future events. Support during difficult times – when you lack strength and confidence. Attracting good luck – working with money and life flows. Each situation is considered individually, without cookie-cutter solutions or empty promises. The main goal is to find the cause of what is happening and help change the situation for the better. Help is available in person and remotely. Complete confidentiality. If life has entered a difficult period and it seems like everything is going in circles, sometimes it is a timely request for support that helps put everything in its place.

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."
 

When I thought that my husband and I could no longer fix anything, I found Lilia in New York.

When I thought my husband and I couldn't fix things, I found Lilya in New York on Telegram. I didn't even know such incredible support and attention to every word existed! She helped not only bring my husband back, but also restore our love. Every piece of advice was thought out to the last detail. Lilya made our family whole and happy again. We are happy we found her! If you don't see the point now, if you cry at night and don't know how to live on—just read this. Just recently, I had a family, children, a loved one... And then everything fell apart. I became ill... in body and soul. I didn't sleep, I didn't eat, I just slowly faded away. And then he left. Quietly. Without explanation. All that remained was emptiness and silence. And the children, who looked at me and didn't understand why Mom was no longer smiling. I thought I wouldn't survive. But one day, I was given Lilya's contact information, and it helped. I called, almost in disbelief, simply out of hopelessness... And that was the beginning of my comeback. She didn't judge. She didn't promise miracles. She just helped. Slowly, piece by piece, I began to put myself back together. Strength returned. I began to sleep. The fear went away. Then something happened that I no longer believed in. He came back. He said it was as if he "saw the light." But even if he hadn't come back... I was already living again. I'm writing this for you, if you are now heartbroken and empty-eyed. Please - don't give up. Help is there. You are not alone. And you will definitely get up. I don't know how, but it works for Lily too. She truly has a gift, and I advise you from the bottom of my heart. This is a person from God. Contacts (+380638055486 WhatsApp and Viber, +19297133433 for a regular call)
