Recently opened after restoration, in two halls at the same time, it hosted creative meetings with people's artists of Russia. In the first hall, the general director of "Mosfilm" and director Karen Shakhnazarov answered the questions. He also introduced the audience to "White Tiger", a biographical film about his father, who liberated Belarus in 1944. And at the same time, actor Nikolai Burlyaev presented the personality of Andrey Tarkovsky and his vision of his biography. The film "Prayer" was submitted to the audience's judgment.

Nikolay Burlyaev, People's Artist of Russia, film director, deputy of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of Russia:

Nobody talks about death or that it doesn't exist on screen now. They don't talk about the immortality of the human soul, that we are temporarily born into this life in order to be born into eternal life later, they don't talk about creators - they've forgotten about it altogether. Cinematography is crawling horizontally and sliding into the underworld. Cinematography of the world and Russia, unfortunately, is heading there.

More exclusives, educational program on the history of Listapad and rare archival footage will be presented on November 3.
