The project is being implemented at the request of the President of Russia as part of the comprehensive renovation of 25 cities in the Far Eastern Federal District. The film studio will be the first facility beyond the Urals to support the full film production cycle—from development and filming to post-production.
"We are revising the financial model and overall concept of the facility to ensure the pavilion becomes a fully-fledged cinema center and a growth point for all Far Eastern cinema. Combining regional and federal support measures will allow us to build a coordinated effort to develop the industry," noted Pyotr Gogolev, Director of Creative Industries Development at the Development Corporation of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).
