State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation adopted on July 26 the bill which forbids to show at the Russian movie theaters movies without rolling certificate if this is not about the international film festivals with the competitive program and jury.
festivals have to be included byin the special register approved by Government of the Russian Federation. Thus, beyond the law there are displays of retrospectives, including black-and-white Soviet movies, documentary and independent not mass cinema, and also a set of existing projects and festivals which have no tasks and budgets on jury convocation. But there is a desire to acquaint the viewer with the most interesting world old and new movie at movie theaters. The journalist and the head of the book Regiment project Saprykin Youri specifies that there will be "one big Moscow film festival, and in Saint Petersburg — "The message to the person". "It is more than anything. Absolutely" — Saprykin Youri specifies. Bazhin Aleksey, the founder of the Inoyekino project who too appeared now beyond the law, claims that the bill purpose — to make the film industry of most operated and to clean from movie theaters "all superfluous and independent". "To clean from foreign movie theaters, by the way. From the private. Though many become unprofitable, like Petersburg "Homeland". And if Petersburg "Aurora", Novosibirsk "Victory" and many others shows only rolling cinema, whether long they will live in general? " — Bazhin Aleksey writes to social networks. He adds that yet does not see any exit and does not know how can keep "Inoyekino".
the Rolling certificate to the owner of the rights for the movie gives out tothe Ministry of Culture, it allows to use work in the territory Russian Federation for replication and distribution, delivery in hire and rent, public commercial and noncommercial demonstration, and also translation per a cable television. The movie is brought in the special register, also the ministry appropriates it age restrictions. The response of the rolling certificate means a ban of display of the movie on territories Russian Federation. In January, 2018 the Ministry of Culture withdrew the rolling certificate at the comedy "Stalin's Death", it occurred a day before a planned premiere of the film to Russian Federation. Officials of the ministry referred to indignation of cultural figures shown in the comedy, and also the found deputies of State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation "signs of ideological fight". In total Ministry of Culture withdrew the certificate at four fiction films — besides "Stalin's Death" it there were movies "Number 44" about the serial murderer in the USSR (it also removed a day before a premiere), the Serbian movie "Clip" which has become the winner of the Rotterdam film festival and the movie "Love" Noe Gaspard. In 2006 the comedy "Borat" Baron Koen Alexander did not receive the certificate, in 2014 — "It is ordered to forget" about deportation of Chechens and Ingushs in 1944.
B 2017 the Ministry of Culture agreed on the new scheme of hire: owners of the rights of each movie, coming out the Russian movie theaters, have to pay not less than five million rubles for the certificate and if collecting exceeds 200-300 million rubles, its price will be calculated on a rate from three to five percent from the sum of collecting. This scheme has to destroy completely display of independent movies, the producer Klebanov Sam insisted. For movie display without rolling certificate the penalty from 50 to 100 thousand rubles, for repeated violation — from 100 to 200 thousand rubles is established. The cinema to modern Russian Federation stopped being the most important of arts. Now it is the market of a film product controlled by the power.
