We invite you to contact us with any questions or requests.
"Thank you very much for putting together an excellent program. I benefited enormously from the instruction I received at both VGIK and MGU -- the professors designed fascinating and challenging courses to suit my interests and needs -- and the staff at both locations were cordial, accommodating and went out of their way to help. It was a wonderful two months, and I learned a great deal."
