According to him, in the absence of capping, “stupid and useless” films are released, while local productions receive limited funding.<\/p>\n\n

Even though, in 2025, out of the 41 Russian films that received state support, 35 were a failure, and the producers suffered billion-dollar losses.<\/p>\n\n

In 2025, the Minister of Culture Olga Liubimova stated that measures are necessary to support local films.<\/p>\n\n
