WWII drama 'Svoi' grabs five NIKAs
LONDON -- The NIKA awards, Russia's version of the Oscars, feted the best national films and professionals Saturday night in a Moscow ceremony. Top awards in the annual event, hosted by Russia's national motion picture academy in a nationally televised ceremony, went to Dmitri Meshkiev's World War II drama Svoi (Ours) in the feature film category and Andrei Osipov's documentary The Passions of Marina. Svoi, produced by Viktor Glukhov, Sergei Melkumov and Yelena Yatsura of Slovo Film -- one of the dozen or so independent production companies based at Moscow's Mosfilm studios -- was also a festival hit at last year's Moscow International Film Festival.
