Welcome to the AZIMUTH International Film Festival — where cinema doesn’t just tell stories; it changes the angle of perception.

In navigation, azimuth is not a destination — it’s a direction. In cinema, it’s the creative bearing chosen by a filmmaker. We are not interested in well-trodden paths. We are looking for bold new routes.

AZIMUTH is a compass for contemporary cinema, based in the heart of Moscow.

We exist to discover, support, and celebrate films defined by a unique authorial vision and artistic courage. Our mission is to create a dynamic platform where fearless debutants and established masters meet in dialogue — united not by where they have been, but by where they are heading.

We are searching for films that:

The SalvaPastores™ Film Awards were created to raise awareness, dignify, and give greater value to the profession of being shepherd and milk producers (goat, sheep, cow, buffalo...), as well as the fundamental role they play in the sustainability of the land, food production, and the preservation of cultural and environmental traditions.

This initiative stems from the SalvaPastores™ project, spearheaded by Michele Buster, co-founder of the international company Forever Cheese, who throughout her career has championed artisan and iconic cheeses and specialty foods from Spain, Italy, Portugal and Croatia.

The aim of the awards is to change the social perception of how this profession is perceived, one that has often been associated with negative stereotypes or a profession left [...]

The Festival on the Cinema was born in 2020, when many actors and film directors were left unemployed or suspended from their work in the arts due to the crisis caused by the pandemic. That's when the project began, interviewing them via Zoom to learn a little about their activities, with the intention of supporting them during this difficult time and giving them the opportunity to showcase their work while we were all locked down during the crisis. Sharing something positive was always something that kept us hopeful that everything would return to normal.
