ten thirty pm in the russian capital good to have you with us as we recap the stories that shape the week moscow calls georgia's arrest of thirteen alleged russian spies a political farce aimed at scoring political points back home to move was also met with mistrust. whatever russia's top investigative journalist severely beaten and moscow police a whole leg cautions professional activity is likely behind the attack. dmitri medvedev tour of russia's far east karylle islands has angered japan which also claims the territory moscow says its ownership is beyond dispute and promises to invest in the remote region. and president obama's party suffers defeat in the u.s. midterm elections but many say it's ordinary americans really lost out as big business played a big role in the outcome. up next artie's sophie shevardnadze discuss the future of the movie industry and the particular tastes of russian viewers with the head of the disney company for russia and the c.i.s.

stay with us. my initial golf was kind of thank you very much for this interview thank you very much for the invitation now more and more russian films take part in an international film festival so sexually mean that movies are becoming a full fledged business in russia all this new company came few years ago to the russian market and since then the whole movie industry in russia picked up and now russian box office is one of the leading in the world for a lot of disagreement so i think with a lot of comfort i can say that. this is the really important and very fast growing market in russian but yet do you maybe have a feeling that could just a company came a little late to the russian market. in our view it was exactly the right time.

in order to develop needs a lot of infrastructure just maybe a few words about our business in russia movies is definitely one of the very important businesses for us movies distribution production are very happy about our first very successful experience with book with masters we do a lot of consumer products we do live entertainment shows we publish books games we do sell our programming a lot of channels will introduce a new channel in russian so for all of that happen i mean the economy needs to be prepared so what kind of products to us to snare actually sell in russia and in the c.i.s. countries with multiple consumer products starting with. a lot of stationary obviously games toys etc one of the most important trends which i would really like to specify during the last few years the amount of products that would be produced

in russia for the right. an audience tripled if you look into the products that was in russia for the russian audience most of them in russia on the russian industrial enterprises when european what do russian companies need to catch up with a standard itself western production companies i would say catching up maybe not exactly the right word. in russia there is amazing history of story telling and for russia the country would like to get inspiration from the russian stories and make movies based on the russian heritage and culture but use some of the heritage that we have in the world this new company and tell them some how we tell stories how the characters develop and always have the happy ending in all the that's really interesting to us actually. a stable hollywood tradition here in

russia or just a russian audience need to be felt like a very specific context that it's used to strongly believe that russian audience has very distant taste definitely a lot of big blockbusters work in russia and russian audiences love. their love alice in wonderland but at the same time there are a lot of stories that can be told specifically for the russian audience and we believe with all fairytales that we started with masters we tapped into something that was not done in russia for a long time it's the quality family entertainment and family stories which we see can travel around the world because with book of masters prizes in various field festivals around the world what we see in traditional russian stories can also travel just beyond the russian audience even though the book of masters was created for the russian audience specifically was book of masters as big of a bloc baster here in russia as alice in wonderland all over the world but even my

question is what kind of movies is profitable to produce and fresh. in order to make profits like blockbusters make in the west for the movies to be successful the audience needs to be interested in the movie and the box office obviously is one of the very important drivers for the revenue for any of the movies t.v. rights definitely is very important part of that and other distributions like d.v.d. blu ray and digital distribution so what does this need to do with its digital content what do you deal with it digital content and digitalization is one of the very important strategies for us russian more and more content is being. used and distributed in digital form and one of the exciting tendencies that we see is that more content that we create in russia now travel abroad for example mobile games. and digital games is the success commercial success of the film

inevitably linked with the way that film is advertised i think yes but different movies might require very different advertising yes it could be advertising on t.v. billboards in the recent time a very important part of advertising is social advertising and social communities on the internet there are a lot of examples already in this country and in other countries where the audience loves it not necessarily you have seen by jets but they really lot of people come to see the movie if they feel it's worth seeing and spending the time there is the major question for filmmakers after the success of avatar hollywood companies including this may have started to take advantage of the three d. for one thing there were companies will begin to use this format it's called potential as we see right now some of the russian companies started producing three d. . and we hope that in the near future there will be very successful examples of that

most. of the recent releases of war converged movies so now we're waiting for a really true three d. movie when it would be short as a three d. movie because the production process requires very different cameras equipment post-production process that d.v.d.'s is one of the sources of your income's piracy is a huge problem in russia where the annual losses for this name for your unit have to stay here in russia and how do you fight it how do you protect your intellectual property piracy is definitely a big issue for little in russia in a lot of countries what we see recently that people try to buy quality content and they used to buying d.v.d.'s in retail we also developed a lot of programs for various price points and we work with a lot of retail partners to make sure that we get that quality legal product to the audiences for very different price points and what we see our d.v.d.

sales and brewery growing really really fast even though we know that now the market is changing and blu ray and digital distribution is really around the corner but still a lot of families buy d.v.d.'s they want to watch movies together they buy it for their kids so would you say their losses in piracy are aren't considerable in numbers we don't really calculate that so we do calculate how much more revenues are growing and what we see especially recently that they pirated market might be decreasing because we sell more and more d.v.d.'s again not only very expensive ones but for mass audience and do we believe that the piracy market is decreasing how many foreign competition actually said it's very difficult to make business in russia and they're citing corruption and bureaucracy as main stumbling points would you say that the unit or your unit ethic distinct local corporations facing the same problems here will this new companies step. in two thousand and six and

imagine at that time there was nobody and to. we were able to build a very strong business and we're leaders in a lot of segments that are important for us we haven't seen them more than two hundred people working here in this office so i believe if you really have a strategy of well thought of if you have a strong team of people you can be very successful in this market only a global major studio not to have its distribution offices here in russia or browsers. ready for an emergence of such serious competitor what would change if warner brothers were to open their distribution offices in russia all of the major studios are present in russia where the direct office is all through their partners so already russia is one of the major markets for the hollywood studios and is growing even more do you guys use the specialists from offices and q. up north from the global the psni. there are seven strategic territories in the

world this new company and we really exchange a lot of best practices with our colleagues not only in the u.s. about in other territories as well there's a lot of similarities between russian market in america for example there is interesting examples that we can learn from in china or japan you know the japanese animation has become really popular with the children and especially on the cartoon market do you think maybe there's a chance that japanese anime it will actually squeeze out the traditional cartoon which has actually been bergen in chip for years and. when t.v. . everybody said all the theater will die all of this. so i think there is very different types of entertainment that people would like and definitely japanese animation is a very very important part of that kids love the movie kid loves old movies and emitted movies so i don't think it will influence strongly yes it's one of the very interesting and important. information which will weigh. if together with all

the other types of information. do you think we'll be successful in two thousand and eleven oh really excited about two thousand and eleven for us it's already started because all financial year ends at the end of september for us the new very interesting releases are obviously tangled very exciting movie and next year would really really looking forward to releasing pirates of the caribbean right now thank you very much wissam tarif thank you. cellphones would be useless without this mineral. is needed to make. good use of culture and is extracted to cast light.

hello welcome to the sports news thank you for joining me on to the head on. one hand on the trophies and it's come from two goals down to win five two at c.b.s. and got nine points clear at the top of the russian premier league. while trouble at the top of chelsea lose at liverpool also step up against newcastle match to city trial on a day of crunch battles in the english i really. simply the best francesco molinari wins the h.s.b.c. champions in shanghai after a string battle with well by one league westward. i was always football as in it's in petersburg came back from two goals down to win five to rock bottom sabir and extend their lead to nine points at the top of the russian premier league to be a stunning the visitors by taking a two goal lead within six minutes than make even a thousand after just two minutes. before posting and that's the way she likes to

think of it the second however isn't gallas and will level with just quarter of that played that he made the steps to go back. before steve joseph met the true his own nice. so it's level at the break for the second half goals within six minutes gave the visitors big tree damage exhibits three two up on the our. side gates and that it's on the record now to ensure it finished five two isn't it now just two more points from the last four games to ensure the title is that superior on the other hand now seven points from safety data. and in the meantime ten man takes guy went second in the table after edging prius of at a four three at home just three minutes in aleksey but is that speed i can see behind side this had the. net so it quickly made it to mail system. the right things in the area. after sixty seven minutes is not on the clock the get out of

sight. however the visitors then ask if we rallied like if i know for the go back to make sure you want. ten minutes to go the army went down to ten men is better sixty six straight red card. this down in the bumps. was nelson then stepped up and that's tennessee. street seemed to set up in that especially. that city then made its cool to you with a minute remaining easy to think that the author agreed that this is one song it's was only to say they cut you off to school for korea in stoppage time off to cool down but it was too little too late and it finished all three pretty a second straight the seat system dropped to say the teams. got us where elias had

to second bottom in the table after they tried out a goalless draw time to last nazif moscow side remain six behind sponsor nothing on goal difference is by science battle for face and you rightfully place. moving on to england and fernando torres scored a first half price is liveable stunned leaders chelsea two minutes on field in an eventful day at the top of the english premier league the spain striker showed two clutches of brilliance in the eleventh and forty fourth minutes ensure the reds roast a knife to the third successive me victory and consequences laid at the top to two points third place also failed to capitalize on that title rivals slip off andy carroll headed the winner on strike off time as newcastle moved up to fifty with a one zero victory at the emirates not close first leaf when it was gone the since december two thousand and one much the city meanwhile remain forced off too early to know west brom mario balotelli scored two first off goals. six minutes then saul reds just after the hour albion was also

a man down to the last eight minutes yusuf milan both sent off the baggies set to tenth. formula one and sebastian vettel led mark webber to a red bull one to win the brazilian grand prix to take the world title fight to the final race of the season at abu dhabi while red bull clinched the constructors' championship for the first time that he took the lead at the first corner and cruised to victory in sao paolo webber was second ahead of financial along though a ferrari who retains the championship lead lewis hamilton mclaren is false the defending champion jenson button fifth and mr tulloch to throw off to finish sixty . so a quick look at the title standings reveals a thrilling finale is in store in abu dabi fear reticular before drivers could still take the title first place along is ok afford to finish second in abu dabi and still take the crown if the weather wins or he could finish gold and clinch the title battle wins the race retains only a slim mathematical chance he's twenty three points adrift of

a long as i would need all his rivals to have disastrous races to win a second driver scratch this place but it can also retain his title. golf now and francesco molinari held his nerve to win the h.s.b.c. champions in shanghai after a gripping battle with lee westwood the italian overcame westwood by one shot in the spirit of jol while inari closed with a five under par sixty seven currently the second win of his career he's called the debut with westwood as the world's number one player although the englishman to find his ranking on the mark molinari and one point two million u.s. dollars in prize money and moved up to number fourteen in the world rankings. i stuck it out and the kontinental hockey league will now take a ten day break while the european nations take part in the carry allah cup in finland but before that in the last of sunday's eight matches second place down i was go took on league leaders measure that by mr gorst and the two conference leaders went head to head in the russian capital the game stayed. right the first thirty minutes before metal finally managed to pry the deadlock. but they

do it right even the score off the goaltender how long until the russian i bend down i took the lead denise i'll take the sport in a bright light to one i still stand still the redlines gone twice more in the last period than the climbing out fight in a race that size me one time is forty one power plays. the final score for wanted another that's what's best for defeating the right however to be honest by speaking to the break into thinking it's i very happy to finally score because i've been struggling i was called for for many games so i know if i only went a week so i'm very very good for the goal of this is a very very good team and it's a challenge for us to kind of measure ourselves and see how we compare against the best team from from the east so i guess if you look at it that way. maybe the guys

will be more motivated tonight kind of proves that we are boring a few. times as much as some but i haven't gone to look as you crossed sixty one home ice it's all about you live with surprisingly strong also sixty by far east atlanta sort of after the least for one defending champions act boss came from three goals down to win four three h. the top end of scots in petersburg also fought back to win three one time just a bare. thrashed nefesh you make seventy two rounds to number minutes even issues has to defeat the chants. and finally coaling is a fairly new sport for russians but the country's sports bosses are king for it to dominate the next winter games in sochi so the national olympic committee has turned to canada for help as more was i girling is traditionally popular in countries like canada switzerland sweden and denmark chilling. just a few and it's been that way there for hundreds of years however in russia which

has had the same weather for requisites as those countries all along the sport of curling has somehow failed to reach the masses a fact which has been considered a major disadvantage especially ahead of the next whole winter olympics but russian sports authorities are aiming for nothing less than to defy the odds at the next winter games and have formed an experimental national team which includes a coach and players from canada i think what has to happen here is you have to get fresh on the forefront to have to get the level of world competition and all that even after the women have rushed playing eleven said instead they have the ball for the requests for women to charles to start playing really so i think that has seen its relation with them and if we can get the men where they qualify into the world and european championships playing at the world level and start showing some results at the world level it will def pick the sport up that much and it will probably be a long while before the russians can embrace curling as

a favorite sport or even pastime as has happened with bowling for example but first things first the country's national squads need to stake a claim on the international curling circuit while the ladies team has already started making a name for itself the men's side is definitely lacking both in results and recognition it was hoped they invited canadian curlers would raise the level of russia's domestic competitions and that's already happening according to tiny woodbridge but the players themselves are ready to go the extra mile for the team and become naturalized citizens of russia to realize they're in the big dream if we're fortunate enough to go and help him to go i mean we'd be all too willing to make if it works make it happen you know when you're on a team you spend so much time training gathering and you know together with and with alexis alexander we know it would mean the world to them to get to you know represent us and an international competition if we can help them do that with down . now for us human resources is just one of the sickles that needs to be overcome

in root's olympic glory suitable infrastructure for curling is the next hurdle which will bit sacral head on by russia sport bosses and according to hans woodbridge the chief ice maker at the vancouver olympics now hired by the russian olympic committee the success of curling it's possible in russia the sport will get more pop at us last time goes on you know like in canada we have over one million not just goodness. it's just going to grow more it's going to grow you can hops they could even have wheelchair burning you can have all kinds of things that are new so you do do a lot of the you just need the facilities and we need a sneakers and you need people that do do precise work even though occurring in russia at the moment is under developed to say the least the country's national teams are expected to deliver a good result at the one sort of big games in sochi and those home games in the year twenty fourteen could become the necessary catalyst for the advancement of the
