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

I didn't believe in rituals or esotericism, but I was so desperate that I decided to give it a try.
I didn't believe in rituals or esotericism, but I was so desperate that I decided to give it a try. Lilia performed the ritual, and I followed all her recommendations. And—miracle! Eleven days later, my husband showed up. He'd been thinking about me all this time, dreaming about me, as he later admitted. Now we're together, and I know my trust was worth it.

Clairvoyant Lily - help in love and return of a loved one
I would like to express my deep gratitude to clairvoyant Lilia for her professional approach and help in restoring my family relationship. After a long period of estrangement with my husband, thanks to her work and recommendations, we were able to find common ground and restore harmony to our family. Our sincere gratitude for your work and support! Her contact information: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber), +19297133433
When a loved one leaves, it seems like the world is collapsing. My husband simply left, saying that he "fell out of love." I turned to Lilia, she ran a diagnostic and said that there was discord between us, caused by the intervention of another woman. Everything matched. Lilia helped to remove this negativity, performed a ritual to restore the relationship. A month later, my husband returned. We are now going to a family psychologist, but without Lilia, nothing would have worked out. Thank you!

Clairvoyant Galina Vishnevskaya helped at a distance
I never thought I would face betrayal, but it happened. My husband found another woman, and I felt like he was out of his mind. Galina Vishnevskaya confirmed my suspicions - he was under a love spell. She performed a ritual to remove this influence and break the connection with the rival. Within a month, my husband realized his mistake, and two months later, he completely broke off relations with that woman. Now he is with me again, loves and appreciates me as before. I don’t know what I would do without Galina’s help! You can make an appointment for a personal meeting by calling 84957721881 or remotely by calling 89687419383.

I'm writing this with trembling hands... I still can't believe that he's here, sleeping next to me, hugging me at night, and not her. My husband left... Not just left... he was taken from his job by a woman with no shame or conscience. I felt him slipping away: the coldness in his eyes, the distance, the lies. He left without looking back. He left me with a child, with empty walls and a broken heart. We were together for 13 years... 13 years of love, pain, joy. And then it all collapsed in an instant. I was dying inside. No one understood how much pain it was. My friends said, "Forget it." But I couldn't. My soul was breaking. He was mine. I knew it. In my heart. In despair, I found reviews of Matushka Raisa on Google. I wrote to her in tears. I don't remember what I wrote... everything was like a fog. She answered very calmly: Don't cry, girl. He's not hers. His soul is still with you. We'll bring him back. But believe. She saw everything: the rival, the husband's weakness, and my feelings, as if in the palm of your hand. She performed the ritual. She said: Give it three days. And don't doubt. On the second day, he called. He spoke quietly, as if ashamed. He said that he felt like he'd woken up. That he couldn't breathe without me. On the third day, he stood on the threshold. With flowers. With eyes full of remorse. He said: Forgive me. I don't know what came over me. I want to go home. We are together again. But now every evening I pray and thank Mother Raisa. For hearing me. For protecting my family. This is not just help. This is a miracle. If you're in despair and don't know where to turn, go to her. Mother Raisa is a light in the darkest darkness. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your help! Her number is +38099-292-71-82 on Viber.
