Refuge with a Twist: Valya and the Eternal Mañana (2025)

His name is Fyodor. This name is well known to many LGBTQ refugees. He helped, supported, and guided people. Many trusted him. And then everything collapsed. Dozens of victims, accusations of fraud and lies, episodes from the past under the surnames Ugolkov and Fain. This film is the story of my friend Valya, who, at a difficult moment in her life, trusted Fyodor and lost time, money, and a part of herself.
