he said that he cooperated with mr. mykola once, and said that he has an absolutely adequate vision of culture, understands its importance and can fit into the ministry, which, i will remind you, is constantly criticized in one way or another, so he can become a minister who , well, at least they won't be actively criticized like that. mr. mykola, another such trigger for ukrainian society, he was once a teammate of andrii... mk, the head of the president's office, and he was his deputy since april, before that he was the deputy minister of foreign affairs of ukraine, and even before in addition, he was engaged in diplomatic activities in various countries, in belgium, in luxembourg, and he has two educations, one legal, actually, the institute of international relations, where he studied together with andrii yarmak, and even earlier he graduated from the faculty of french-english philology , he is engaged in...

he should be engaged in translations, he graduated from the shevchenko institute, so you see, mr. the new minister of state has his vision in part, in particular , he says that he will pay special attention to countering disinformation, and i will tell you what there it's a lot of work, i don't know if one ministry can handle it, but it's really related to culture, because it's going to happen. option of the ministry of culture, this is the ministry of culture and information policy, it was enough, in my opinion, divided, and these two topics were not very shared, cooperated, more precisely, because culture is one thing, information policy is completely different, we can now to mention some of the other ministers there, and here, for example, the previous minister of culture oleksandr tkachenko, and he was criticized a lot, after the mountain, just critics were on him, he was released, after all. but

he was more involved in information policy, that is, i would prefer to call the department of his time the ministry of information policy and then culture, but in general this ministry causes quite a lot of different conversations and skepticism, people even say that we do not need such a ministry, but people forget about the fact that there should be a state policy in the field of culture and the same countering of disinformation, it very often intersects with... tetsvo, and because, as i have already said, higher russia is very good, very skilfully uses culture in order to spread its influences, and we must counter it somehow, i will tell you that at the moment i do not see such opposition, or i see it weak enough, nor did the ministry of culture deal with it effectively, but we had many, there were bright some actions, but almost all of them were private, well... also, we have a state cinema

that has no vision for the development of our cinema at all, there is no, there is no policy, there is still no strategy, and even worse, if we say about international film festivals, namely russia's influence on them, constantly pushing their propaganda films here and there, which are veiled under such liberality, under the fact that everyone should be sympathized with, then ah... state cinema is not betting at all on these films, which can travel to international film festivals, and state cinema is betting on commercial cinema , ukrainian for tv series, but listen, soon we, our filmmakers, will have nothing to go to these film festivals with and something, at least something to contrast with russian propaganda films, because we have talked with you more than once about the fact that festivals are not just presented films, these films are there on... they are indicated, they

are discussed by the public, they travel there, film crews arrive, they communicate with this public, they give interviews, this is a huge, very important media platform that we need to use, well, judging by of all, at least the state cinema , i think that this site is unimportant and you can score on it, well, we'll see what actions the new minister of culture and strategic communications will take, well, now... we 're moving on to the venice film festival directly, which is going on right now, here is this festival, we can now see the red carpet as the opening ceremony, and the festival, definitely, and the information about it is flying around the world media like hotcakes, because it is a festival that is focused on, as usual focused on attention to the cannes film festival, to the berlinale, we...

usually really like, well, many of us like to look at the dresses in which people came to the red river, who came there at all, and we choose some funny... moments from all these ceremonies, or on the contrary, sensitive, sensual moments, for example, angelina geli talked to her fan, who is very sick, who can't get out of bed, but here he is, he appeared there and she knelt there to make it more comfortable i talked to him, and it was also spread by the world media, and it is definitely being discussed, it is a whole week of discussions, even a little more, people... on social networks share their various impressions about the films they have watched, of course, it is important, it is important consider that the visual component also takes place, and that any actions that, for example, our filmmakers want to do there, must be

very carefully identified and preferably bright, interesting, in order to get into the media again, which is what our filmmakers did this time? i want to tell you about the films that our ukrainians showed at the venice film festival, first of all, this is a honeymoon. i'm waiting for this tape, because i'll be honest, i gave such a little advice to the actress of the main role, the fact is that it is about newlyweds who spend their honeymoon a month in the occupation, there is a story about this couple who were... stuck in the occupation, they refused to leave and now they are sitting locked in their apartment, they are knocking, i understand the russians, and you know, at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, we were very worried , how our filmmakers will touch on the subject of

occupation, a full-scale invasion, precisely in game tapes, and very often talked about the fact that it is too early to shoot films that will directly touch on such difficult topics. i think so far, and judging by the trailer, at least, the authors approached the topic delicately enough, there is no provision for showing any russian atrocities, it is just a chamber story of a newlywed couple who encountered a full-scale war in such circumstances, and it is more like, you know, a chamber psychological drama, as it seems to me , of two characters, here's how they discuss their relationship, let's watch an excerpt. the queue is simply terrible, there is a queue everywhere, i waited for three hours and after me ran out of gas, guess what, we will drop everything here, there are taras tanks,

well, the other film that was shown at the venice film festival is ukrainian, it has the name pis. of the slowly burning earth, the film is a documentary, it was made by olga zhurba, and she, well, i read the reviews, it is clear that i have not seen this film either, now we can watch its trailer, and he, these are these, that’s what people call , who watched it already, such a diary of the first two years of a full-scale invasion, where we are shown a sufficiently large section. different people, different emotions, different events, and - i would really like to see this movie already from the trailer, it is clear that visually it is very interesting and bright, and also, well , i'm just interested to watch our

documentarians, who do their work very well usually, let's see an excerpt, on the neck of the corpse, the existing chains. test half a heart with the inscription i will always be near. well, we will talk with olga in just a few minutes, and now i will tell you that our filmmakers are also reporting about treason, taria pesella, a producer, and the producer, in particular of this tape, she wrote that she went

to see a film against which there were warnings, it was called russians at war, it's called a documentary about a certain anastasia. fimova, who, as i said at the beginning of our program, shot tapes for rashi today, now she shot, judging by everything , a completely propaganda film, like many. of russian cinematographers, she is now coded as a russian woman, that is , she positions herself everywhere as a russian-canadian director, and the producers also call her film french-canadian, not russian, we see these russian soldiers with whom the director spent seven months of her life, who let her there, again, we ourselves understand, and judging by... from what dasha described, the film evokes sympathy for

the russian military, she also writes that the director does not emphasize , that russia started this war in 2014, it will start the war from the 22nd, and in general it is very surprising how it is, how the country could do such a thing, after all , this has never happened, that is, again , there is no reflection that russia ... has been constantly attacking various countries for many, many years, and this is no excuse strangeness, that is, aggression in ukraine, well, unfortunately, it is not strange, and here i want to quote daria basel, here she writes: quoting, by the way, she is addressing, she wrote her post in english, she is addressing foreigners, this it is very important, because we need to communicate, and while the new minister is getting used to his new position, he is busy with communications... privately, people, i quote: you will feel pity for the people who die in the film and for those who mourns

his loved ones, and you should, if you're a normal person, you should feel sorry, sadness and emotions, but it is also worth remembering that these people joined the army that invaded an independent country, many of them did it voluntarily, as we learn from the film, it is also worth remembering bucha, irpin, mariupol and those civilians, who were killed there. remember the thousands of children who were illegally taken from ukraine to russia. while i am writing this, and you are reading, rockets are flying at ukrainian cities, buttons are being pressed by ordinary russians. are their crimes less significant just because they claim they don't know why they're being taken participation in this war. end of quote. i will say that the so -called liberal russian media do not deal with these narratives, and constantly push the idea that ordinary russians are not to blame, it is only putin. it's just his entourage, the russians don't want to fight, at this moment i like

kanal dosh most of all, which was wiped out from the baltic countries, because they allowed themselves a lot there, but they show, for example, when covering our kurdish operation, they first show what about these russians , who say that putin pamagi, putin somewhere, tell absolutely frankly what their relatives are protecting now. donbas about the fact that we support the so -called svo, then the presenters talk about the fact that ordinary russians do not want war, it is only putin, well, that is, absolutely nothing is in their heads there, even among people who directly do not work for russian propaganda, but it turns out that they still work for her, anastasia trofimova herself, now we can watch a short video, see what she looks like, she... from the conference, they asked her, what about you not think you're whitewashing criminals and

humanizing them, she says this, quote: i find this a bit of a weird question, can we, can we humanize or not humanize someone, are there lists of people we can humanize and those we can't , of course, we must humanize everyone, it is a huge tragedy for our region, first of all, and for the whole world, if we do not perceive each other as people, these black and white stereotypes about each other will lead to the continuation of the war, it will only increase hatred , unfortunately, this is a kind of way that politicians are going, but i don't think that this is the way that ordinary people should go, the end of the quote, that is, well, we see this again, it's not people, it's all politicians, it's absolutely clear to all of us that there are some omissions, messages, but on sorry, as i understand it, it is not a shield for all foreigners and not in all countries. this is because it is simply perceived as the protection of people's rights, we, unfortunately, see a lot of cases where in

european and western european countries they directly protect the military, russian, and also claim that they can to be victims of this regime, i want to finally talk to olga zorba, she is currently at the venice film festival with, let me remind you with the director, rivers, songs of a slowly burning earth. thank you for finding 10 minutes for us. i understand that you have a very busy schedule there, you are currently doing very important, important things, communication, in particular, but come on. first let's talk about your tape because i haven't seen it, i 've only seen the trailer that's available so far, i've read the first reviews and i've heard mostly positive reviews, but tell me how do you position this film yourself, how do you see it and how, in your opinion, does it differ from other documentaries by our

ukrainian directors about a full-scale invasion, what did you put into it? well, first of all, i ate through myself, as a person, all the experiences that i also lived, and tried to capture and broadcast, to transform the condition of cinema, and the changes that are taking place, which i observe in our society, are caused by the war, and the film itself is here explores, let's say, the first stage of these changes, because it seems to me that in the future, if only you know, a new page in our society is starting, we are getting used to war, and where is the door, sorry, i'm sorry, i just have a source here, but regarding, you also asked

about reviews, yes, i'm wrong. tali, well , i have received only positive ones so far, no one has scolded you yet, but listen, it is not for me to evaluate my film somehow, there are special people for this, our job is to make a film, release it into the world and promote important narratives for us, which should destroy established myths about ukraine, about our culture and in general. war as a whole, that is why i laid, in this way, in my opinion also important and meaningful messages that i hope will reach an international audience, not only ours, because i tried to make this film for ukrainians and for an international

audience, and also i think that... it will be, whether the film will be in the context of today, and how it will be read several generations from now, it was important for me to make a film that will be understandable out of context, will be understandable to people who will no longer remember, that is , i i also thought about such categories when i was making, when we were shooting, when we were editing and when we are presenting the film now. olya, you said that you included some of these moments, about our country, about some possible destruction of stereotypes, can you say what exactly these are, what are these moments, what exactly did you want to convey to foreigners and in what way? well, here not only for foreigners, but also for us, i will tell you, because ukrainians have a huge

inferiority complex, ah, it seems to me that the international audience is lulled by russian century-old or 200-year-old propaganda about 40 people, for example, there is a scene that, in my opinion , shows how our society is very, well, i am proud , in fact, even myself when i saw what we filmed and how it looks to me ukrainians, because we have very high values spiritual, and there are several scenes where we emphasize it without even realizing it, but i also wanted to ask olya about this, this film by a russian director, who says that she is not russian,

but russian-canadian, because daria the deputy wrote a very resonant post, so on... they said that you also had to watch it all, i sympathize with you once again, although i myself sometimes watch some russian propaganda for reviews, but it is all terribly difficult to watch, and please tell me your impressions of this film in russian, it is still russian, although it is positioned as french-canadian, and most importantly, what impressions did you observe from the audience at the venice film festival, because we are all constantly scared that... russia is pushing its propaganda and everyone is following it in a row, is it really is that true or is she really goes down very well with the film festival audience. and yes, this film is made to the maximum, and this film is made for the fact that it is just

hidden for this international audience, which, let's say, plays pacifism and is lulled into this dark, i think it's already dark, when you try to all to justify, but it seems to me that this is the justification of military expulsions. at a time when they are still committing crimes, this is also a crime, and i spoke a little about it at our press conference, because at that time i did not have the opportunity to watch a russian film, because it was after ours, but like, well, i read the synopsis of this director, i also got acquainted with her biography, and the fact that the director worked for, it seems, since 2017 , a propagandist russian... broadcaster rashadei, who is now calling for the genocide of the ukrainian people in general, excuses itself, tells me much more than any there, even

processions, or any thanks, that is, i no longer trust, let's say, a person who worked after, for example, the occupation, he can no longer be uninvolved, and of course i wondered this is the question. at the press conference, uh, and then i went to see this film, and purely from a socio-anthropological point of view that i think it's important to also know, not even about the film, how the audience reacts to such films, because in principle , it was obvious to me what this film was about, but i was interested in how the international audience would react. and at the premiere, it seems to me that there were actually more foreigners, and that is why it is difficult

to say here, but the very fact that this film was given the entire platform and the very fact that the director and the team of the company, which, by the way, includes france, canada, and these producers, also watched the press conference of this team. and it seems to me that it doesn't seem like it, i'm just sure that it's just that, it should become part of the general crime that they now, instead of imprisoning, roughly speaking, these people play, yes, that they are responsible for all war crimes , this team is justifying them, and this is such a blurring of the position in general, it is even more ... prolonging the war, and i think that this is catastrophic, well catastrophic,

a really painful situation, and we need, as ukrainians should now do, work out a strategy, how to make this film simply not go anywhere else. oli, thank you very much, oli, thank you, unfortunately, the connection is very bad, but we heard you. thank you for telling us about this, well, we will work out some kind of strategy with the new minister, we will gather at the ministry of culture and somehow ask the new minister to try to do something, especially since they say that he understands this problem, i will tell you in the end, friends, that after all, big film festivals, they remain in many respects, on the one hand, russophile, that's why that if you have been for many years... they talked about the great russian culture, about promoting russian cinema, because russia really did it very, very much and always

invested a lot of money in the development of its culture, especially in exports, so that everyone admired in the world with this culture, people are used to it and by inertia respect this russian culture, their representatives, artists, this is on the one hand such an attitude, and on the other hand there is russian money, which... it is quite possible to bribe someone, we are not we can affirm anything, but not once our moviegoers already had direct conversations about what is, well, or directly bought, for example, the selectors there at various film festivals, that is, the people who select movies, what kind of movies they took russian, selected, and that's why it was shown on the venice film festival, or is it the cannes film festival, there are also a lot of russians in berlin. but there are a lot of russians, they come, they buy films from various producers, because at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, the big majors, that is, the american film studios, big

manufacturers everyone left the russian market in unison, and european manufacturers, on the contrary , went there even more, because there was room, and for example, the french are now making great money on the russian market, because the russians no longer have anything to watch, although they watch it well, because they just these american films are stolen and shown in cinemas, but the french, germans, italians feel great in those markets, and unfortunately, the following story is happening, when money... sentiments, long-term informational, cultural policy of russia makes mind its own business, and ukrainian state policy , on the contrary, takes care of the rear, and this, considering the fact that we have resources, considering the fact that we have a lot of artists who make very good works, who make good films, and so what , we will, i repeat once again, monitor and communicate with the new minister of culture and

strategic affairs. friends, i say goodbye to you, i wish you a nice and peaceful weekend and goodbye until next week. in september, there are discounts on motorx, 10% in the pharmacies of psyllanyk, bam and oskad. in pharmacies you will find plantain and savings. vasyl zema's big broadcast. me my name is vasyl zema, this is a big broadcast on the espresso tv channel. two hours of airtime. two hours of your time. my colleagues and i will talk about the most important things. two hours to learn about the war, about the military. to
