AURA Film Festival
AURA Film Festival
The word AURA has two meanings: it’s the atmosphere and the wind blowing. The name of the film festival was inspired by both of these definitions. Our film festival is an atmosphere of creativity, celebration and art. A whiff of wind is the wind of change and the point of films, as well as the wind from the seas, near which the cities of film screenings are located (the Black Sea, the Baltic Sea and the Sea of Azov).
The screening sessions of the films of the film festival are held in three cities at once. In the south it is Sochi and Rostov-on-Don, and in the Northwest it is the cultural city of St. Petersburg. Film screenings take place in cultural and youth centers, both indoors and outdoors.
We screen both fiction films, documentaries and animated films, as well as social videos from around the world. In addition, there is a competition of posters and photo projects.
Viewers of different ages attend our film festival. After the screenings, there is a discussion with the creators and organizers of the festival.
On the last day of the film festival, an award ceremony will be held, where statuettes, diplomas and gifts from partners will be presented to the winners of the film festival.
AURA Film Festival is a review competition of films received evaluation by the Selection Committee.
The Festival’s aim is to support cinematographers and to contribute to the development and promotion of film industries.
The film festival focuses on a variety of themes and genres.
It is a strong advocate for social change, and encourages cultural diversity and understanding between nations.
We are also including and actively supporting not only the finest examples of classic moviemaking, but works that are experimental, breaking ground in new non-narrative forms and crossing over into the video arts. All films will be reviewed as they are submitted, and the best in each category will be chosen to screen at the festival. Semi-finalist films will not be screened but will receive our festival laurels.
The final decision on the inclusion of the film in the Festival competition program is made by the Selection Committee which reserves the right not to explain the reason for the refusal and not to give any comment.
The winners are chosen by the organizing committee of the film festival.
The winners receive valuable prizes from sponsors and partners, laurels and diplomas.
