Instead of the usual meeting with the audience, the creators staged a theatrical action. The symphony orchestra under the direction of Peter Drangi performed musical compositions, and Vodolazkin and Borisov read excerpts from literary texts right on stage. The Oscar nominee actively played every line: jumped, read and even knelt in front of the hall, fully immersed in the process.

The main feature of the evening was the interaction with the audience. In the hall and foyer installed 18 cameras, filming spectators. According to the organizers, this made it possible to make the audience part of what is happening – the reaction of the hall directly affected the atmosphere and course of the event.
