Moscow plans cinema alliance with pro-Russia countries, including India and China

This move towards a new movie entente comes against the backdrop of economic sanctions and a cultural boycott by the West. According to a Reuters report in March, about 1,000 foreign companies have exited Russia, suffering losses of about $107 billion. Meanwhile, Muscovites say their own firms have stepped in, particularly in sectors like food and fashion, that they don’t feel any difference.
