well schoolgirls georgia has the rights of thirteen alleged russian spies a political farce and scoring political points believes his move was also met with mistrust. of the democratic policy with major defeat and in the elections and locals troll of the house of representatives but some say it's big business rather than american people which has the biggest say. also told level investigations ordered by the russian president dmitry medvedev after the time to the murder of a leading investigative journalist in moscow police say that they called much sun newspaper reporter or like those links to his work. on the route between mostly in tokyo president dmitry medvedev told to russia's far east that this has eased as of japan's ambassador returns to moscow than expected after he was recalled while japan lays claim to the on and that russia says that ownership is beyond dispute

and promises more investment in the remote region. coming up next on she's sophie shevardnadze discusses the future of the movie industry and the particular tastes of russian bureaus with the head of the disney company for russia and the c.e.o. . 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 the international film festival so sexually mean that movies are becoming a full fledged business in russia all the 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. 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 the display 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 of 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 new channel and russian so for all of that to 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. norton's 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 your opinion 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 in 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 to the company and tell them so how we tell

stories how the characters develop and we always have the happy ending of the movies 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 audience 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 our fairy tales 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 master's 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 last year's as big of a block 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 blue ray and digital distribution so what does this need to do with 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 to success commercial success of a 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 very important part of advertising is social advertising and social communities on the internet for a lot of examples already in this country and in other countries where the audience loves it not necessarily you have. budgets 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.

format when you think there were conference will begin to use this format to its full potential as we see right now several of the russian companies started producing three d. release 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 is one of the sources of your income's piracy is a huge problem in russia what are they and. this need 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 disney not only in russia but in a lot of countries what we see recently that people tried to buy quality content and then used to buying d.v.d.'s in retail we also developed

a lot of programs for various price points and 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 a 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 and aren't considerable in numbers we don't really calculate that so we do calculate how much revenue is a growing and what we see especially recently that the 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 say that'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 if it does need global corporations facing the same problems here well this new company established. in two thousand and six and imagine at that time there was nobody in and two. 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 more than two hundred people working in this office so i believe if you really have a strategy of well thought all if you have a strong team of people you can be very successful in this market the only global major studio not to have its distribution offices here in russia is. 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 the office and queue up more from the global the psni. there are seven strategic territories in all different 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 latin 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 so that kids love the movie as kid loves old soviet 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. together with all the other types of animation. you saying will be successful in two thousand and eleven zero where really excited about two thousand and eleven for us it's already started because our financial year ends at the end of september for us the new very interesting releases obviously tangled very exciting warry and next year we're really really looking forward to releasing pious of the caribbean thank you very much person to you thank you. culture is that so much you are going to try to do if you're on the bottle there's

a recap of the stories that shape the week most locals george's arrest of thirteen alleged russian spies a political fos aimed at scoring political points but this is a move was also met with mistrust. of the democratic we'll see with

major defeats in elections and loss of control of the house of representatives but some say it's big business rather than the american people which has had the biggest say. a top level investigation is needed by russian president dmitry medvedev after their brutal attempt to the murder of a leading investigative journalist in moscow police say that tom connolly called the sound newspaper reporter a caution because the links to his work. between mosque in tokyo growth and dmitri medvedev stall to russia's far east loans has eased as japan's ambassador returns to moscow than expected after he was recalled while japan lays claims to the islands russia says their ownership is beyond dispute and promises new investment in the remote. world sport with kate.

hello welcome to the sports news thank you for joining me on to the head on this. one hand on the trophies and it's come from two goals down to win five to a superior and got nine points clear at the top of the russian premier league. while trouble at the top chelsea lose it liverpool also step up against newcastle match to city trial on a day of battles in 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. so i was always football as it is and 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 business just by taking two goal lead with in six minutes the bag even i think just two minutes. before punished we want to make sure the other second

however is in reality and we're level with just quarter map played that he made the stress to go back. to st joseph met the truth his own eyes. so it was levelled at the thirty three second half goals within six minutes david this is just big tree down if it's if it's three two up yeah ah that gets i'm not excited because now to ensure it finished five minutes now just two more points from the last four games to ensure the title is that severe on the other hand and i'm seven points from safety data ah. in the mean time ten months a scot went second in the table for a chunk of us of a top four three at home just three minutes in and that seabed is that speed i think it was something decided that much that suited. the strike was

in lieu of. a sixty seven minutes is all that's why she took the gate out of sight i understood was the visit is the end swiftly rally it ivanoff pulled a goal back to make it three one. with ten minutes to go the only way to get down to ten is barry sixty still a straight red card system in the box. was that something stepped up some results in tennessee ots three to two sets up and then this finale. that's it then made it through to the minute remaining easy taking the auster rebound and turn targets was only a step to catch off to school for korea in stoppage time after. cuts it was too little too late and it finished school three create

a second straight defeat sees them drop to settings. elsewhere amnestic back to second bottom in the table after they paid out and goes to angela community for the moscow side with main six behind on top notch on goal difference by science battles assist directly place. moving on to england and fernando torres scored a first toss bryce's livable stunned leaders chelsea to miller's anfield in an eventful day at the top of the english premier league the spain striker showed too much as a brilliance in the eleventh and forty fourth minutes ensured the reds roast tonight for the third successive league victory and cut chance of lead at the top to two points third place also failed to capitalize on that title rivals slip off sandy carroll headed the winner on strike soft life as newcastle moved up to fifty with one male victory at the emirates not close first leaf win is gonna since december two thousand and one much the city meanwhile remain forced off too early to know west brom mary-alice. teles scored two first half goals in six minutes then saw the

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 took the lead at the one out and cruised to victory in sao paolo webber was second ahead of fernando alonso of ferrari he retains the championship lead this come out of my parents' fault finding a champion jenson button fifth tennis metallica thrived in the sixty's. so a quick look at the standings reveals a thrilling finale is in store in abu dabi i fear retic a four drivers could still take the title first place alone so can afford to finish second of abu dabi and still take the crown if the weather wins or he could finish the old and clinch the title the 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 top disastrous races to win second trying to 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 a spirited jol while inari closed with a five under par sixty seven currently the second ring of his career school the debut with westwood as the world's number one player although the englishman finds his ranking of 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 saw you now and the continental 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 did i was go took on league leaders measure that by mr gorst and the two conference leaders went ahead. ahead in the russian capital the game stay tight throughout the

first thirty minutes before metal finally managed to pry the deadlock. was thinking i might even the score off the goaltender how was it down to the russian was down i took to meet denise i'll take the sport in a bright white one i. see the red lights go on twice more in the last period than the cut now in a race that size me one time is one thing on our face i see the final score for want to deny that's like soccer for defeating the right however to be honest by speaking to the break into thinking it's. very very happy to score because i've been struggling with her score for for many games so i know if i only went a week so i'm very very good before i go to 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. maybe there's

a little bit more more of it tonight kind of proves that we were boring at the. time that's passed on but having gone look if you crossed sixty one time i said it's not about you lie it was surprisingly strong also sixty's by far east atlanta sort of after the least for one defending champions x. boss came from three goals down to a full three top lead of scots in petersburg also fought back to win three want to take just the best. thrashed nefesh make seven two constant i meant even issues has to defeat the chants. and finally coaling is a fairly new sport for russians but the country's sports bosses are keen for it to dominate the next winter games in sochi so the national olympic committee has turned to canada for help as more was girling is traditionally popular in countries like canada us were. serlin sweden and denmark to name just a few and it's been that way there for hundreds of years however in russia which

has had the same with it vereker this as those countries all along the sport of curling has somehow failed to reach the masses a fact which has been considered and major disadvantage especially head 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 perhaps you can have a real competition that even after the woman russian punk eleven's and instead of having it all into the records for women girls to start playing really so i think that has seen its creation with them and if we can get the men where they qualify into the world or the european championships playing at the world level and start showing some results at the world level people death to the sport that that 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 big dreams 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 other and then you know together with and with alexis alexander we know it would mean the world to them to get to you know represent by fan a international competition. if we can help do that that one down now for us human

resources is just one of the sickles that needs to be overcome in roots in a big lorry 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 icemaker of the vancouver olympics now hired by the russian live the committee the success of curling it's possible in russia the sport will get more popular ask us time goes on you know like in canada we have over one million not difference. in the school of growth to more it's going to grow you can have steak good england have wheelchair curling you can have all kinds of things that are new so you will have to be just meet some of these and maybe they sneak through so you need people that 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

this so far exotic sport in the biggest country on earth or a man cost or of artsy. and that's all this post news by the now. hungry for the full story we've got it for us the biggest issues get the human voice face to face with the news makers.
