On Tuesday, April 15, 2025, at 19:00 MSK, please join us on Zoom for a live conversation with filmmaker Andrey Svetlov, whose debut feature "Friend" won the Golden Eagle Award — one of Russia’s top film honors. The film was made with no studio backing, a small budget, and a team of independent filmmakers from Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine. It went on to make history.
Andrey will talk about how the film came together, the challenges of making movies with limited resources, and how he built an impressive career in both film and advertising from humble beginnings.
If you would like to watch the film before this session, you can watch it here.
The Q&A portion of the conversation will be moderated by Christina Tsvetkova, an accomplished film director who was recently admitted to the highly competitive Master’s in Film program at Columbia University’s School of the Arts.
Language: This event will be held in Russian.
Recommended for: ages 18+, especially those interested in film, media, creative careers, personal development, entrepreneurship, and innovation.
