The BRICS countries carry unique cultural codes, traditions and civilizational idiosyncrasies. But despite their differences, they have profound historical ties in the field of culture and art. Strengthening multilateral partnership in the film industry can become a promising area of cooperation between the BRICS countries, thus contributing to the intercultural communication growing stronger and opening up new prospects for cinema and culture exchange. Cooperation with new partners will allow us to see the cultural and cinematographic traditions of Russia with a fresh eye. Experts will discuss international cooperation in the field of cinema and co-production, building a system of joint film education within the BRICS countries, the value of cultural heritage and identity as a competitive advantage for these countries, as well as how creative industries are becoming a significant factor in the growth of national economies.
