The event will be attended by distinguished guests like Dr. Anna Pino, a professor at Moscow University and renowned film director; Sherif Gad, Director of Cultural Activities and Secretary-General of the Egyptian-Russian Friendship Association; and Daria Butcharova, Senior Specialist at the Russian Center.
