International film festivalMessage to Man International Film Festival

Festival “Message to Man” was founded to emphasize the important role of non-feature films in cultural life of the country and allow national documentary filmmakers become more familiar with the world of international cinema. However, with years, the goals of the Festival had broadened and as a result, short fiction and animated films were added to the competition program. Every year the Festival presents over 50 Russian premieres and more than 300 films from around the world are screened in competition and special programs.
