The documentary "Holy Entrepreneurs", created by the Spas TV channel with the blessing of His Holiness Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia, attracted more than 15,000 viewers in the first week of its release. The film is shown in dozens of Russian cities.
The film was widely released on November 5, 2026. Its premiere took place in the summer at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum. By now, about 200 cinemas in more than 80 cities have already shown the film or included it in their repertoire.
"Holy Entrepreneurs" is a story about people for whom entrepreneurship has become not only a way to make a profit, but also an opportunity to serve God and their neighbors. The film is based on the stories of famous Russian merchant dynasties, saints associated with trade and entrepreneurship, as well as modern businessmen who seek to build their business on Christian values.
A special place in the painting is occupied by the history of the creation of the icon of the "Patron Saints of Entrepreneurs" and the moral code of the Orthodox business community. The authors of the film address the question of how to combine business success, responsibility to society and fidelity to Christian commandments.
The painting was supported by the business community. In addition, the film is included by the Russian Ministry of Education in the program "Pushkin's Map — in the cinema for the whole class," so that high school students can watch it.
On November 15, at 3 p.m., the united network of Cinema Park and Formula Cinema will hold an All-Russian action: simultaneous screenings of the film will take place in 56 cinemas in 29 cities.
The film was directed by Yuri Odnopozov, and written by Boris Korchevnikov and Inna Larionova.
