The Russian National Movie Award, also known as the "Georges", is an annual award presented to recognize excellence of professionals in the film industry, directors, actors, and writers. The award was established by LiveJournal bloggers Alexander Folin, Maxim Alexandrov and Olga Belik in 2005.[1] Historically given during the first quarter of the new year, the awards honor achievements for cinematic accomplishments for the preceding year. Winners of the award are voted by the public.[2]
The name of the award comes from French film director Georges Méliès. The various category winners are awarded a copy of a statuette. The awarding statuette was created by artist Natalia Petrova and represents a matryoshka, which is considered a direct symbol of Russia and folk art.[3]
