On January 29, in Moscow, at the Central House of Cinema, a pre-premiere screening of a new full-length animated film "The Northern Cupids" was held, created by the Ufa studio "Mukha" together with the film studio "Bashkortostan" with the support of the Head of Bashkortostan Radiy Khabirov.
Senators of the Russian Federation, representatives of the Plenipotentiary Representative Office of the Republic of Bashkortostan in Moscow, representatives of the Bashkir community, representatives of the cultural community, and movie lovers attended the premiere.
In the center of the story is the story of the Bashkirs, who become active participants in two wars: the Russian-Swedish war of 1788 and the Patriotic war of 1812. It was the French who called the Bashkir horsemen armed with bows and arrows "The Northern Cupids", comparing them with the ancient Roman deity for their mastery of the bow.
The premiere in Ufa will take place at the end of May, after which the animated film "Northern Cupids" will be released in wide Russian distribution. The film is also planned to participate in festivals.
