About me

View profile
Rina Gri, well known throughout Russian speaking countries by her roles in the award-winning popular TV series "Kitchen" and "Hotel Eleon” and box office film franchise “Policemen”, trained at top acting schools, such as the St. Petersburg State Theatre Arts Academy and the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute in Los Angeles.

In 2022, in response to her opposition to war, she immigrated to Europe, currently residing in Bucharest. Shortly after that she was awarded a scholarship at the International Screen Acting workshop at the Filmakademie Baden Württemberg.

Her U.S. debut, "The Girl Who is Selling Fish," where she starred and took on a producer role, premiered at Filmfest Bremen in 2022, earning acclaim at US festivals, including the Long Island International Film Expo and the Richmond International Film Festival. 

Both actress and producer, she addresses global themes like mental health, social issues, the immigrant experience, and the impact of loss, which she explores in her upcoming projects "The Secret of Pin-Up Island” and "Seven Days and a Coke” directed by Alecs Nastoiu.
