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 want to recommend a strong magician +380984558444
Girls, I want to recommend a strong magician and healer Tatyana. My story is difficult: my husband began to change - he became cold, angry, stopped communicating with me and the children. After a while, I found out that he had a mistress. And the worst thing is that she really cast a spell. I felt it on myself - I started getting sick, insomnia, it was hard to breathe in the house. I was looking for help for a long time, and in one group they recommended Tatyana to me. She immediately said: there is a love spell on my husband, and a block on me. She did a cleansing, rituals, gave protection. In just a few days, I felt as if a burden had been lifted from my shoulders. And a couple of weeks later, my husband became different - as if he became himself again. Now we are together, everything is getting better. I didn’t even think that such things work until I encountered it myself. Who is in a similar situation - I highly recommend it. Here is her number: +38 0984558444 Viber
Pregnancy is supposed to be a joy. But for me it was hell. In the 5th month, my husband packed his things and left. He said, "I'm not ready. I don't want this life. I'm sorry." And I stood there with my belly and watched him leave without turning around. He just turned off his phone. And then I found out he had another woman. Younger, without worries, without problems, without a child. I couldn't believe it. The baby was kicking under my heart, and I cried for days. I was afraid to give birth alone. I started asking God to bring him back. I was looking for any clue. A woman from a mother's forum suggested Liliya to me. I wrote to her almost in despair. She answered calmly but firmly, "He is under the influence. His soul is yearning to go back. We will bring him back." I did everything she said. I lit candles, read words, talked to his photo. It was scary, but for the first time, hope appeared. After 11 days he called. His voice was shaking: "I don't know what happened to me. I realized that all this time I was thinking with someone else's mind. Will you forgive me?" He came back. He was with me during the birth. He held my hand when our son was born. Now he is the most caring father and husband. Lilia, I will pray for you for the rest of my life. You didn't just bring back a man - you saved our family. And gave my son a father.

When I turned to Lilia Pavlovna, I was in complete chaos, both mentally and at home. My husband had left, there were fights at home, and everything was falling apart at work. I no longer knew where to go or who to turn to. But Lilia saw everything herself, without my words, and told me about my life, my past, and the people around me. Everything matched up down to the last detail! She performed her rituals, cleansed me and everything around me. Since then, a lot has changed: my husband has returned, our relationship has improved, and there is peace and warmth at home again. Even my work has improved: I have gained confidence, new opportunities, as if everything had just fallen into place! Lilia Pavlovna is a truly gifted person. She helps sincerely, from the heart, and most importantly, there really is a result. I am writing this review with gratitude and from the bottom of my heart. May she continue to help those who have lost hope. Here are her contacts: +380638055486 (her WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433 (USA)
I did the diagnostics and immediately understood everything - this is where the real gift is +380984558444
I called Tatyana just to find out - "is there something on me", because lately it has been very difficult: depression, insomnia, anger at loved ones. She said right away from the photo: I have the evil eye through food (a treat from a woman whom I would not even suspect!) and a strong energy leak. I am in shock. She described everything, nothing extra, everything is to the point. She did the work - I felt better on the day of the cleansing. Sleep was restored, I became calmer, my husband said - "it's like you again." Now if I feel something is wrong - only to her. She is very kind, clear, real. Thank you, Tatyana. Her phone number: +380984558444. Take care of yourselves, girls, and do not hesitate to ask for help!
