Russia’s Yakutia invites Belarus to cooperate in film production

“For many people it may come as a surprise, but Yakutia is one of Russia’s most developed regions in terms of filmmaking. We rank third in Russia in film production behind Moscow and St. Petersburg. 25% of the awards won by Russia at all international film festivals last year came for films by Yakut filmmakers. We are continuing this work,” the head of the region explained.
