The RUSDOCFILMFEST-3W 13th Annual Independent Documentary Film Festival is launched today, October 19, in New York. Due to the fact that this year the festival will only run online due to the Covid-19 pandemic, all the features can be watched online around the world. Screenings will be held through the Online Theater platform until October, 25. 

The festival is organised by the New Review Inc. (Novyi Zhurnal), the oldest intellectual literary journal of the multi-ethnic Russian-speaking community. Documentary filmmakers from across the post-Soviet states and the USA will present their works.

This year’s program includes a selection of documentaries created in the last two years by 14 filmmakers from Armenia, Bulgaria, Israel, France, Kazakhstan, Spain, and Russia. All documentaries are US premieres. Most of the films in the program are laureates of international film festivals.

The festival's logo is created by famous Russian-American artist Ernst Neizvestny. The main prise is created after this logo.

Documentary enthusiasts will have the opportunity to vote the winner of the special Viewers' Choice award.

Italian entrepreneur Marco Maggi's book, "Russian to the Bone," is now accessible for purchase in Italy and is scheduled for release in Russia in the upcoming months. In the book, Marco recounts his personal odyssey, narrating each stage of his life as a foreigner in Russia—starting from the initial fascination to the process of cultural assimilation, venturing into business, fostering authentic friendships, and ultimately, reaching a deep sense of identifying as a Russian at his very core.
