At the moment Belarus has just gained independence and fall out of world’s and post-soviet film industry. Idea of the festival belongs to Serhey Artimovich,〔http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2695357/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1〕 the director of “Tele-ARS” studio. “Listapad” was created to unite the best films of post-soviet states and bring them back on the screen in Minsk. The participating films had already passed through more radical film festivals of “Kinotavr” and “Kinoshock”.〔http://www.kinoshock.ru/eng/main/〕 During the first year of existence, the festival was called “Post-soviet Film festival “Listapad”. Russian directors made the majority of films, presented there. Later works of Ukrainian, Kazakh and Azerbaijani directors joined the program of the festival. Rating system was established since the first year. Viewers give their rate to the film in special forms, which are spread before the screening. The top prize of the Festival is called “Golden “Listapad”. Other two are “Silver Listapad” and “Listapad Bronze Audience Award”. International Jury and International Film Critics Jury award them to the competing works. Rostislav Yankovsky became the Chairman of the Festival in 1994 (currently holding a position of Honorary Chairman of the Festival). Between 1996 and 2008 Valentina Stepanova was directing the Festival. During this period, representatives of 45 countries have joined the Festival as directors, producers, jury and press. New nominations were introduced and special prizes from media and guilds were established as well as prizes for Best Actress and Best Actor. The Children and Youth Films Competition “Listapadzik” became the main novelty of the festival in 2008. In 2003, the Festival was officially recognized as an International. Films from Poland, Russia, Serbia, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, USA, Iran, China and Japan were screened at the Festival during this year. 2007 was also special for the festival. Valentina Stepanova and film critic and editor Irina Demyanova have organized the first Documentary Films Competition. Since then Irina Demyanova〔http://www.listapad.com/en/komanda〕 holds the position of Documentary Film program director of the Festival. In 2010, Anzhela Krashevskaya〔http://www.listapad.com/en/komanda〕 became the director of the Festival.
