Fully familiarize yourself with both documents and a videotape of the Council of experts, please visit the “RG”. Here are just a few quotations from the speeches of the speakers.
Maxim Ksenzov: “on 10 may there was a decision of the government is the first systematic document that we had one that determines what will be expressed in measures of support of the backbone enterprises in the field of culture and what will be the interaction of the Ministry of culture, Ministry of economic development and industry representatives. Among the measures of support – state subsidies, deferred payment of taxes, the possibility of assignment of the state guarantees for loans and so on. Decisions will be made by the government Commission, on the basis of monitoring data of these enterprises. But you need to understand that the status of “core enterprise” is not only rights but also obligations”.
Sergey Selyanov: “overall, I believe that shooting should resume. We can’t stop life. And then you need to decide specifically in each case. The content in today’s conditions – vitamin for all people in all countries of the world. Now leading the expression “content was king, and became the Emperor.” And directing a movie is also partly our responsibility. We won’t compare it to medical, but let’s actively seek through government – like the cinema back to the viewer.”
Yevgeny Mironov: “the film industry is like no other, requires attention. We are now, as they say leading economists included in the biennial crisis – both economic and spiritual. Who will bring out of this crisis? What are psychologists? Of course, artists of theatre and cinema. Hollywood “pulled by the ears” America during the great depression. Of course, the necessary assistance to the workers in this industry – and urgent. In the theatre this is easier – actors are paid. It is small 15-20 thousand, and the rest we pay extra – income from performances. But in the movie – a huge army of people: makeup artists, costume designers, property masters, and others. If we do not help them – we are the industry save. Must be the money,conditions are created so that we save��whether the movie – as Lenin said, the most important of the arts”.
