one story and really with words i will tell you one story the phone begins not one story but in this one much more important than the beginning will be its ending and it will not be an open ending finally he can put an end to the battle that has been going on for more than 100 years this battle started with the arrival of the train the hero and the antagonist came out of it, and this is how the confrontation on the screen was born, which came to real life , first the movie appeared in our life, then it became our life, and then, in particular, the movie depended on what the future would be. my story today is about this battle about the battle and about the future, the most terrible

dictators of the 20th century loved cinema, this is known about them, but of what remained after them, the most important are the eerie documentary footage of the newsreel, as well as the films that were challenged by this dictator. on september 1, 1939, the first festival was to begin in cannes, but the second world war broke out, cinema was on the front lines of this war for 6 years together with all humanity, cinema fought for freedom for 6 years, and unfortunately also in favor of the dictatorship, now returning to that cinema we can see how freedom moved towards victory and how in the end she did not allow the dictators to capture the hearts of the people, there were many important

points along the way, but the most outstanding one was in 1940, when the world saw, at first glance, an inconspicuous guy who was not at all like a hero, but turned out to be such a great dictator did not destroy charlie chaplin then a real real dictator, but thanks to him, the cinema ceased to be mute in all senses of the word, the cinema spoke and it was the voice of the future victory of freedom even then in 1940, when with human hatred sounded on the screens, go away and the dictators will die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people and as long as the people die

freedom will never die, since then, from these words of the hero chaplin, humanity has made a lot of beautiful movies, it seemed that everyone has already understood that it is possible to subjugate people. beautiful gathering them near the screens and not ugly gathering them in bomb shelters it seemed that everyone already thought that the horror in the form of a full-scale war that could cover the entire continent would not continue anymore but again as then there is a dictator again like then there is a war for freedom again like then and there should be no cinema either february 24, 2022 russia started a full-scale war against ukraine intending to go further into europe

what kind of war is this i want to answer this question as clearly as possible armed with the words that were said by the cinema over the years that passed after the previous continental war you have already heard most of these words they sound scary on the screen but unfortunately it has become a reality remember this remember how it sounded in the cinema you hear napalm, son, you can’t confuse this smell with anything, i love the smell of palm trees in the morning. that’s how it started in ukraine in the morning at four o’clock. when we heard the first explosions of rockets. when the airstrikes began and when death , which was going to ukraine across the border, marked its equipment with an analogue of the swastika with the symbol of the zed, all of them

they want to be better nazis than hitler, now not a week goes by without finding mass graves of murdered and tortured people on the territory where russian troops were or still are 229 children killed by the russian invasion, they have nothing it turns out except to kill kill kill they sowed europe with corpses you saw what the russian military did in the small town of buch, you saw mariupol, you saw azovstal, you saw the city theater blown up by a russian bomb, by the way, it was similar to that where you are now , ordinary ordinary people, civilians , were hiding there from shelling two large and very noticeable inscriptions were children children they were on the asphalt next to the theater and

we will never forget it because it is not even hell war is not hell war is war and hell is hell with the war between the two of them is much worse more than 2,000 russian rockets have already hit our land tens of months destroyed completely burned villages more than 50,000 ukrainians forcibly deported to russia tens of thousands are in russian camps that were created on the model of nazi camps no one knows how many prisoners there are he doesn't know, but everyone knows who is to blame for this, what do you think, cute, you will be washed away, it is unlikely that the most terrible war since the second world war is already in europe, first of all, the bells of one person, that in moscow, other people die every day and they will not come back to life after the phrase stop was removed but what do we hear about it

now, will the cinema be silent or will it speak if there is a dictator if there is a war for freedom and if again as then everything depends on our unity, will the cinema remain outside of this unity, our cities are not destroyed by virtual graphics, many ukrainians videos have started and they are trying to explain to the children why many ukrainians have to hide in the basement have become like aldoren the land of our country is already striped with thousands of trenches of course we will continue to fight and we have no alternative but to fight for freedom and i am sure that the dictator loses, but the words must sound like they did in 1940 , sound from all the screens of the free world, we need a new chat that will prove now that the cinema has

stopped being mute, remember how it sounded greed poisoned human souls, blocked the world with hatred, led us to dinner, so bloodshed, we developed speed but the technology closed in on itself which provides us with abundance has left us in poverty knowledge has made us cynical our rationality is rigid and unkind we think too much and feel too little more than technology we need humanity more than rationality, we need kindness and gentleness to those who hear me i say don't fall in the eyes, human hatred will pass and dictatorships will die finally we have to win this

battle and we need a movie that will ensure just such an ending so that every voice is on the side of freedom and how this and you always see before everyone the voice of cinema, i thank you all glory to ukraine in the capital, they said goodbye to the first president of independent ukraine, leonid kravchuk, on his last journey, the politician was escorted to the ukrainian house, the coffin wrapped in the ukrainian flag was brought to the building guard of honor, hundreds of

people came to the farewell ceremony about his life, presidency and political activity, see more kyiv ukrainian house european square, an hour before the start of the farewell ceremony for the first president of independent ukraine , at the entrance, huge posters with quotes from leonid kravchuk and a photo of his oath next to the portrait, hundreds of wreaths, guard of honor the guard in his hands holds all awards of leonid makarovich of the second and third degrees security measures due to martial law are unprecedented european square is closed but a hundred people who knew and did not know kravchuk personally come to say goodbye to the first president of independent ukraine, not just a politician and a person who changed the course of history. he was not just a politician and not even just a historical figure, he was the person who knew how to find wise words and say them so that heard by all

ukrainians, it is especially important in difficult crisis moments when the future of the entire country can depend on the wisdom of one person. leonid makarovych showed just such wisdom at the end of the 1980s , when the ukrainian movement stood brilliantly the 91st year has passed and it can only now look like it was. then it was easy for him and it didn’t happen. leonid kravchuk always stayed with ukraine, perhaps thanks to his wisdom, he was particularly cheerful. he always appreciated life every minute, but he always found more than one far away a minute to help figure it out to give advice, and in particular i am personally grateful to him for this. he survived the second world war as a child, survived the occupation. leonid

makarovych knew what freedom was worth and wanted peace for ukraine with all my heart. i am sure that we are we will achieve our victory and our peace eternal honor and memory to the first president of independent ukraine on the 11th in one moment the center of kyiv freezes as the honor guard takes the coffin out of the car the body of the first president of ukraine was brought to the motherland from munich, where he was treated for a long time , the blue and yellow a flag is used to cover the coffin near the central entrance capital mayor vitalii klitschko minister of culture oleksandr tkachenko ex-speaker of the verkhovna rada oleksandr moroz of this history of ukraine this history of our independence of its history of formation, those things that were and

remain the foundation for today, a line of hundreds of people stretches through the city center here, everyone who worked, loved, knew, began to criticize, respected ordinary ukrainians, artists, public figures , politicians, deputies of this convocation and the leadership of the parliament. in ukraine, this is the first time that we have lost a president of independent ukraine and knowing how much he loved ukraine and how much he lived in our déjà vu under the chairmanship of kravchuk. adopted the act of proclamation of independence of ukraine, here are these historical shots of august 1991 in the verkhovna rada, disputes, the speaker of the parliament, leonid kravchuk , are trying to gather deputies and vote on a decision, an extremely important decision, and how much can be

discussed, because every deputy must have his own position on the square. constitution, rally, people with blue and yellow flags are demanding independence today here, next to the ukrainian house, only a kilometer from the parliament, where independence was also declared complete of blue and yellow flags, makarevych set himself up to join this column of fighters for the independence of ukraine on the same august 24, 1991 . i literally stood over his head and said let's put him and vote because the window of historical opportunities opens for a very short period of voting on the scoreboard 346 votes

for just as many deputies actually create a new independent ukraine to be proclaimed on august 24, 1991 ukraine is an independent democratic state , a blue-yellow flag will be handed over to the verkhovna rada, and on the 30th anniversary of independence in the hall, the staff, unity , joy and chants are unheard of for the parliament. until its recognition, there are three more months, this period continues the presidential campaign and preparation for the all-ukrainian referendum, which was held on december 1, 1991, and only one question was asked:

do you confirm the act of independence by more than 90% surveyed ukrainians support this decision precisely after it ukraine began to be recognized in the world from poland, canada, hungary, lithuania, and until 2003, 171 countries, until we held a referendum, this is ukrainian, no country in the world recognized ukraine as an independent state, so a referendum on december 1 was needed to overcome the consequences referendum on march 17, it can be overcome, the consequences of the torah were in the leasehold in the consequences of this referendum , there was no other way, on the same day, ukrainians elected their president for the first time, and they first applied for this position 38 six candidates were included in the ballots, the fiercest struggle was between kravchuk and

chernovol, leonid makarovych won with the support of 61%." at the same time, he followed his line even though we had our own candidate - he was from the people's movement of ukraine , vyacheslav chornovil, but it was such a situation that the representative of the national democratic forces could not win then leonid makarovych on society was still deeply in this communist consciousness, the inauguration after the election i solemnly swear to the people of ukraine
