Last night was the Melbourne turn to open 2018 Russian Resurrection Film Festival. This event is running for 15 years and is very warmly received by the audience. This time it was not an exception and ACMI was hosting big crowds of people. Unfortunately, despite anniversary, no officials VIPs or star guests with the exception for the recent short visit of Konstantin Khabensky, were present at the opening night in Melbourne and we asked the director of the Film Fest Nicholas Maksymow - how come?
