Yesterday, Lutsk cinema art fans had the opportunity to watch the film "Mamay". Two natives of Lutsk, graduates of Lutsk Secondary School No. 4 – director Oles Sanin and cinematographer Serhiy Mykhailchuk – worked on this most resonant film of our time. After the screening of "Mamay", a meeting with its creators took place. Let me remind you that the Ukrainian film "Mamay" received several awards at the XIII International Film Festival of Slavic and Orthodox Peoples "Golden Vityaz", in which representatives of 25 countries of the world participated. Oles Sanin's picture "Mamay" was awarded a diploma for "Best Cinematography" and a special diploma "For Poetic Screen Adaptation of the Epic". The film crew of the full-length film "Mamay" last year received the Oleksandr Dovzhenko Prize on the day of his birth. Incidentally, "Mamay" by director Oles Sanin and cinematographer Serhiy Mykhailchuk was nominated for the "Oscar-2004" award in the category "Best Foreign Film". It is a pity that the Americans could not appreciate all the depth and beauty of the picture. The screening of "Mamay" in Lutsk took place under the patronage of the governor of Volyn, Volodymyr Bondar, and it was initiated by Lesya Ukrainka Volyn State University.
