Last Sunday, September 1, the opening of a film festival called "Kinoshock" took place in Anapa. This is already the 28th such festival, within the framework of which films of Russian filmmakers, as well as filmmakers from the CIS countries, are shown. This information was published by the administration of the Krasnodar Territory.

The film forum, which was given the name "Kinoshock", is being held for the 28th time in Anapa. This time, the event started on September 1 and will end on September 8, according to a press release from the local administration. The press service said that this time the works of filmmakers from the Russian Federation and the CIS countries will compete for prizes in five nominations. These nominations were: documentary films, feature films, children's films, short films and television films.

The press service quoted the words of Veniamin Kondratyev, who is the governor of the Krasnodar Territory. He thanked the organizers for the Kinoshock festival and for the fact that the venue has not changed for a long time. Residents of the Krasnodar Territory, as well as its many guests, wish to attend this event, attend meetings with directors and actors, and attend screenings of old and, at the same time, very beloved films.

It is interesting that a special children's jury is responsible for evaluating children's films and determining the best films in this category. It was decided to determine the winners in the television competition not by the decision of the jury, but by the results of the audience voting. In all other nominations, the best films are selected by professional directors and actors.

The main prize of the festival is called the Golden Vine. The producer of the feature film, which will be named the best this year, will be able to get it. The chairman of the jury, which will choose the best full-length film, this time at the Kinoshock festival was Yusup Razykov, a screenwriter and director.

Last 2018 at this film festival the main award was won by a film called "Munabia".

The film was directed by Taalaibek Kulmendeev from Kyrgyzstan. Among the children's films, the best was the picture "By conscience" by the Russian director Yevgeny Sergeev. Among the documentaries, the prestigious prize was awarded to “Bears of Kamchatka. Beginning of life". This is a Russian-made documentary directed by Vladislav Grishin and Irina Zhuravleva.
