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.

Lily is my savior and sorceress who brought back my lost love!

I didn't believe in magic. I used to think such things were just fiction and delusions. But when I found myself on the brink of despair and lost the man of my dreams, I had no choice. He left. Just left, leaving me with a broken heart and the feeling that my whole life had lost its meaning. I tried to fight, to fix everything I could, but nothing worked. And at some point, I just gave up. Then I found out about Lilia. At first, I even doubted it, but a gut feeling told me this was my last chance. I decided to give it a try, and it was the right decision. When I first talked to Lilia, I felt such incredible warmth and support that even the tears weren't from pain, but from the fact that I was finally understood. She immediately "saw" the whole situation. Not only what was happening with my man, but also my own mistakes, my fears, my doubts. She accurately identified the blocks that were preventing him and me from being happy, and offered not just a path to restoring our relationship, but a transformation of me as a person. Lilia didn't promise miracles. She said I needed to work on myself. But her words were so confident and warm that I believed anything was possible. She set me on a path of self-discovery, taught me to let go of the past, overcome my fears, and become more self-assured. And a month later, when I had almost forgotten how painful it had been, he came. The very man I once thought lost forever returned to my life. He said, "You've changed. You've become different, and I want to be with you too." These were the most important words in my life, and I know that without Lilia, this would not have happened. I am forever grateful to her for what she did for me. She gave me back not only a man, but also my own strength. I once again felt worthy of happiness, and that love isn't magic, but a force that lies within us. Lilia is more than just a clairvoyant. She is a woman with a deep understanding of life and a huge heart. I recommend her to anyone who has lost hope. She will restore not only your love, but also your faith in yourself. Thank you, Lilia, for being there, for your support, and for your miracle! Her contact information is: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber), +19297133433 (regular call).

I highly recommend it if you need to restore harmony in your life! Her number: +16463779379.

I didn't even know that such a miracle could happen in our life until I met the fortune teller Alexandra. When my husband left, I felt like everything was collapsing around me and I was just losing myself. Crazy pain, tears, sleepless nights, it seemed like there was no way out. But Alexandra gave me hope back. She literally brought my husband back to me in the shortest possible time, as if she had created real magic. Her words were like a light in a dark room, and her advice was a real salvation for our family. Alexandra sees deeper than anyone else, and her power helped us overcome what seemed impossible. She has a lot of rituals, each of which is carefully selected and filled with power to help in your particular situation. Thanks to these ancient rituals and her knowledge, I have confidence and faith in the best. After my husband returned to us, we are happy together again. Now I have turned to her to plan the conception of a long-awaited child.. I believe that with her help our dreams will definitely come true. I am not just grateful, I bow to her talent and kindness. If it were not for her, I do not know where I would be now. Alexandra is a real sorceress, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to those who have lost hope.
