The audience also saw a rich animation programme with 93 works, including those created by directors from BRICS countries. In addition, TV BRICS International Media Network provided 8 documentaries from Brazil, India, Iran and South Africa.

"I'm thrilled that 'Lisa and her mole' was part of TV BRICS special screenings, sharing a heartwarming story with Sakhalin viewers. This film highlights the importance of kindness, self-love, and compassion, values that resonate deeply with audiences worldwide. I'm grateful for the opportunity to connect with viewers in Russia through this beautiful animation"
