Commissioned by the Cinematography Agency of Uzbekistan, filming has officially begun on The Magic Jug, a co-production between “Uzbekfilm,” “Bayram,” and Russia’s “LENDOK” film studio.
Yesterday, the project team gathered in Saint Petersburg, where they held a traditional plate-breaking ceremony to mark the official start of the production process.
The film features actors from Russia, Uzbekistan, and Kyrgyzstan, highlighting its status as a significant international project.
The Magic Jug is being produced as part of Uzbekistan’s Living History program. The project aims to share the nation’s rich history and cultural heritage with a broad audience, especially inspiring respect for traditional values among the younger generation.
