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.

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 magic or clairvoyants. But Lilia changed my life.
When everything was falling apart—our relationship, our trust, our understanding—I turned to Lilia almost by chance. I wasn't expecting a miracle. But one happened. She didn't make empty promises. She simply saw what I hadn't noticed. Thanks to her support and advice, I realized where I'd made mistakes and learned to rebuild my relationship with my loved one. Now our home is full of light and warmth again, and our children are smiling. Lilia, you're like an angel who came at the right moment. Her contact information: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber), +19297133433
When my husband said he was leaving, I thought it was all over. We had arguments, he became cold, stopped communicating, spent nights away from home. It turned out he had someone. I found Lilia through reviews. I called her - she immediately said that he was under negativity and influence from the outside. Everything coincided. We did several cleansing sessions and a ritual for return. After 12 days, he wrote himself, came. Cried. Said that he did not understand what came over him. Now we are working on our relationship, and I feel that the man I loved has appeared again. I don’t know how she does it, but there is a result. Thank you very much, Lilia.

Black magic was destroying my life - my healer grandmother saved me +380661542367
For a very long time I could not understand what was happening to me. I was constantly sick - one illness after another. Weakness, a rash, blood pressure, endless examinations that showed nothing. It seemed that my body was simply giving up. My soul too... Everything was falling out of my hands, I cried at night. Then relationships began to fall apart. The person I loved suddenly became a stranger, and another appeared next to him... I later found out that this woman turned to black magic. They told me directly: you have a curse, done intentionally to destroy. And it really did destroy - health, love, faith in myself. I ran to "specialists". All I heard was: you need to pay, do a ritual, urgently. There were a lot of promises. I spent a lot of money, even more energy. And it only got worse. If I had known about Elizaveta Andreyevna then, I would have saved my health and heart. She is not just a clairvoyant. She is a bright person with a great gift. She works with white magic, and warmth comes from her. When I contacted her, she immediately said that I had a black program from a woman, a rival. She didn’t scare me, didn’t pressure me. She just started helping. After her cleansing, I felt as if the heaviness from inside had gone away. The illnesses retreated. I started waking up with a light body. Little by little, step by step, I returned to myself. I started smiling. My strength returned. It was as if I was born again. Elizaveta Andreevna also helps from a distance. She works together with her daughter Lyuba, who is especially strong in love affairs. If you don’t know who to contact, here she is — the one who really helps.
