The “Berkarar” cinema in Ashgabat will become a unique venue where movie lovers can immerse themselves in the world of exciting Russian films. From March 28 to 30, the Russian Film Festival will be held here, organized by ROSKINO with the support of the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation.
Turkmenistan will be the first CIS country to host this large-scale film forum. Spectators will have unforgettable meetings with the heroes of their favorite films, immersion in fairy-tale worlds and acquaintance with the latest releases from Russian film distribution.
Within the framework of the festival "Russian Film Festival Turkmenistan 2025", viewers will be able to enjoy four films, including family blockbusters and an animated film for young viewers.
One of the main events will be the screening of the family fairy tale "Finist. The First Bogatyr", which has already won the hearts of Russian viewers and entered the top three highest-grossing films of 2025.
