Международный кинофестиваль «БУДЬ!» (4)

Festival start: 05 February 2027      Festival end: 08 February 2027

BUD! International Film Festival

WE DON'T REMEMBER. WE RESURRECT.

Viktor Proskurin was more than an actor; he was an institution of truth. He commanded the screen with the intellectual intensity and moral weight of a Sir Anthony Hopkins, capable of conveying profound depth with a single glance. At the same time, he held the unshakable public trust and everyman dignity of a Tom Hanks.

Our festival is not a memorial ritual. It is a machine for resurrecting his spirit. We seek films that possess the same authenticity, the same fearlessness in the face of the system. We create a space where the truth of a character is more important than its budget, and the courage of the author is more valuable than glamour.

The "BUD!" Festival in memory of Proskurin is not a film review. It is a casting call for a new breed of creators. Those who, like Viktor, dare to BE. Loudly. Fiercely. Irreversibly honest.

Our goal: To become a melting pot for an authentic cinematic language, where Proskurin's legacy becomes the benchmark.

Our belief: Authenticity is the new currency. And truth is the most in-demand genre.
