Rewarding Partnerships to Spotlight Russian language cinema
Partnership Types
We work with leading experts and world class institutions to create engaging programming, generate research and realise innovative and ambitious projects that achieve impactful engagement with Russian film.
Because Russian language film intersects with many different knowledge fields which bridge European and post-Soviet culture, we work hand in hand with experts in different areas to build collaborations and cultural understanding.
We have developed a distinctive network spanning business, the arts and cultural worlds, allowing us to enable meaningful connections to fund what we do. We also work with leading brands to identify shared values that create opportunities to support the expertise of leading arts organisations, archives and collections, curators and experts.
