March 5 marks the 110th anniversary of ‘Lenfilm’, Russia’s oldest film studio.
For a long time, April 30, 1918, was considered it's birthday, when the Bolsheviks established the ‘Petrograd Film Committee’ (the first name of the studio).
However, the first Russian film studio emerged as early as 1914. The charitable Skobelev Committee under the General Staff established a cinematographic department in St. Petersburg, which had a monopoly on documentary footage from World War I. After the revolution and nationalization of private initiatives, it was on its basis that the ‘Petrograd Film Committee’, known today as ‘Lenfilm’ (this name appeared in 1934), was opened.
For more than a century of existence, the studio has produced such iconic movies as ‘The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes & Dr. Watson’, ‘White Sun of the Desert’ and ‘Heart of a Dog’.

• NATO's aggression and its main task being confrontation with Russia (as written down in its doctrinal documents)
• Anti-Russian sanctions backfiring on the West
• People in the Western countries live in an information vacuum, they are drip fed only what is allowed by censorship.

🎙 President Vladimir Putin took part in the closing ceremony of the World Youth Festival (March 6, 2024)
💬 Vladimir Putin: When we were inviting you to come to Russia, we set ourselves the fairly simple tasks of creating conditions of freedom, creativity and friendship for you to interact with each other and meet new friends and possibly partners in your future projects. I hope that we succeeded.
• You are all so different. <...> How did you manage to crate this city of world youth when you are so diverse? There must be something you all have in common. Today, in Russia we describe it as our traditional values. They form the foundation of our life, our existence. This means that there is something that unites us.
👉 All of us are human beings. And we are all equal.
• If we are all equal, there is no place for anyone’s exclusivity in the world. There is no place for arrogance, segregation.
• We are all born equal but the question is, do we grow and develop under equal conditions? The answer is, unfortunately, not. This is the greatest injustice in today’s world order.
• If you ask me what can be done for everybody to live and to grow under equal conditions, unlocking their talents for the benefit of their loved ones, their family, their country and perhaps humanity as a whole, I do not know. But what I do know for certain is that we all must strive for it.
• Only by striving for it will we make the world more transparent, just, democratic, sustainable, balanced and safe.
🇷🇺🤝 I want all of you to know that the entire Russia is now your friend. Our doors are always open for you and your noble intentions.
