and this already crosses all boundaries, but these, but he did not present any evidence of this sexual violence, by the way, which was threatened by, say, ukrainian protesters in canada, various ukrainian filmmakers, in principle, people in social networks, have already begun to assume that it is quite possible, someone may have written in some comments like, what if it was you who felt how these russian soldiers were raping you there, maybe you... you wouldn't treat them so condescendingly to the heroes of this film, i mean, and maybe it's canadian here are the managers this festival was perceived as a threat of sexual violence, well let's listen to mr. cameron. for the most part, everything was civil and peaceful, but some of the threats were horrific. tiv employees received hundreds of verbal abuses in e-mails and phone calls. our.

employees have also received threats of violence, including sexual violence, which is horrifying and our employees are understandably scared. terribly frightened, mr. bailey also says that there were extra screenings that made this film two, that there were terrible security measures, because they were also afraid that the film crew would be attacked by ukrainian protesters, and i don't know whether? sexual violence against them is obvious, and it should also be noted, unfortunately, that now we can possibly look at how the ukrainian protesters are protesting, if we did not see all this, we can also state, unfortunately, that the canadian , the american, and in general the north american and world press, for the most part, has such positive reviews about this russian. a tape, well, obviously

a propaganda one, but one of the most valid arguments against these protests of ours is that the majority of the protesters did not watch this tape, well, you and i did not watch it either, we simply trust the point of view of our female filmmakers who saw it in venice at the venice film festival, and well, judging by the thesis in this film, well, it's really propaganda, because the thesis is just very standard, what exactly are these thesis that they use for... the western audience, what i mean is that's all a situation when, well, it’s not the people’s fault, let’s feel sorry for these soldiers, yes, well , they, look how ignorant they are, they’re kind of bad, but they were forced to fight, maybe they don’t fully understand, they’re also unfortunate people, all politicians guilty, and so on, this is the whole song that we know very well, especially since anastasia trofimova says at the beginning of her film that, my god, i was so surprised when russia attacked. to ukraine in

the 22nd year, it was so unexpected, well, she absolutely does not say that russia attacked ukraine in general in 2014, and before that she attacked other countries, and this is not the first time that this has happened, and if she had spoken about it, then the eyewitnesses to the reaction of the public would have been a little different, but less so, and we can also to talk about what, well, let's just go one by one. let's listen to one of the quotes, for example, from the publication and mail, well, that 's what the author writes there. russians at war is a brave and exceptional documentary. unadorned, shows the horrors of war, including some of the most gruesome footage you 'll ever see on the big screen. this

the documentary in no way glorifies russia, its military or its war effort. this film in no way demonizes ukraine or its people. that's it. well, we have to understand that this is the idea of ​​westerners about all these matters, we have to explain all this to them, because the russians understand, i don't get tired of repeating it, how and to which audience. children, and judging by this, this is the film russians at war, it was made really high-quality from the point of view of the artist and director anastasia trofimova, she is quite an experienced person, she shot a lot for the world broadcasters, who, as i have already said, and therefore, and therefore, we must understand that this is indeed propaganda implicit, moreover, many people who we call naive, who we can call leftists, who we can call not very trained there by people who

live there somewhere in well-fed, civilized, prosperous countries, and have no idea what russia is like, they, they say, do not understand what propaganda is, and do not read these... moments, and here, for example, i can quote what they thought in italian about this film, here i am quoting, i am also quoting one journalist, here, for example, italian culture is humane and conflict-free, italians, despite all their external emotionality, avoid confrontation, so it is the italian audience with its traditional russophilia, the ideal living environment for this kind of propaganda product, well actually... well, if we talk about the further fate of this film, then it will be shown at many different film festivals, for example, at the festival in zurich, there are as many as four screenings of it, and this indicates that it is really big enough interest in this film, and they will also show

serhiy loznytsia's tape, the invasion, it's also such, you know, a rather dubious story, serhiy loznytsia, he's actually belarusian, he has ukrainian citizenship, but he's like that, he lived in russia long enough. and then, i think, at the age of 20, he already moved to live in germany, that is, he is completely outside the ukrainian context, but he is considered and positions himself as a ukrainian director, i must say that, from my point of view, he is really a very talented person, and ukrainian cinema is known in the world because of him, that is, he is one of the most famous, if not the most famous ukrainian director in general, and yet he is so sufficiently russophile, he hides it, he is sympathetic to russian culture, to the russian language, and that is against all these radical solutions that we all offer, and here he shot this film, well, more precisely, the people he worked with, whom he hired, yes, in ukraine, they shot

him a video and he edited it there himself, this is what he did with the previous with their tapes, that is, absolutely without context person, a person who does not even want to immerse himself in this context after coming to ukraine. and i must also say about other ukrainian films, which are also currently at various film festivals, because you know, it turns out that we talk about this russian film quite a lot, and this is understandable, because we have to fight against russian propaganda, but fight with it, in particular, we need our tapes, so some, well, i don't know, call it an answer or call it counter-propaganda, or just call it our good, understandable stories that will with our voice... for example, at the same film festival in toronto, the film "you cosmos" by pal ostrikov, which we talked about, was shown, this film, it seems to me, should be a very cool, intelligent comedy, massive, it will be released, as promised by the producer volodymyr yatsenko, who is a military man, by the way, like almost all the people on the screen

, he promised that there should be a rental in the fall, and this film tells about a truck driver who is also an astronaut. here he is somewhere in space, while he was flying, the earth simply disappeared, it exploded, well, in short, there is no more earth, and he remains the only person in the entire cosmos, but later it turns out that no, there is another french woman and they have to meet somewhere, he also has a robot that also helps him, it is his friend , well, we are really looking forward to this film at the box office, we will talk about it, and there is also a film under the volcano, what is interesting about it, it was also shown at the toronto film festival, it is about ukrainian refugees who left before a full-scale invasion abroad to tenerife and that's where this one came to them news of a full-scale invasion, but this is a polish film, not a ukrainian one, and it is a polish film that will compete this year, or rather next year, for

an oscar, let's see an excerpt: where to go, you me, you will show the way, and what's next? let's watch this kind of film, of course we wish it success and we are waiting for it at the ukrainian box office, it is interesting because the director damian kotser, he says that the film is so much about ukrainian races'. but it must be said that he positions this story as universal, which will be understandable to many to people, i.e. this is a family, parents, two children, and here they have to experience something, this whole event, we saw roman lutskyi on the screen and anastasia karpenko, and here are some of my

favorite actors of ours, i hope that i will like this film , we are waiting in the box office, and there is also oksana karpovich's film peaceful people, which was... berlin, but also, as people who were at this film festival say, had a great impact on the audience there. let me remind you that the film combines shooting, m'. de-occupied kyiv region, de-occupied territories in general, donate to ukraine, and that's it the sounds of intercepted conversations of russians, russian soldiers and their relatives are superimposed, and there is, of course, absolute trash, because i especially remember the conversation of the son with the mother, the son tells how he tortures the men, what tools he has there, and my mother says that yes, son, you are well done, but if i were in your place, i would do the same, it's like... the westerner tells us about this deep russian people, about which we also talk a lot, so what as if he is against the war, here

it turns out that he is not, it is this this film were shown in ukraine at various film festivals, we are waiting for the rental, but now, if kornii hrytsyuk is already in direct contact with us, they say that we still need to wait a little for kornii, i will say that in general we have the following problem, that well... the global problem is that russia understands very well how to generally influence with the help of art, they have developed this whole layer of culture, a cultural myth, a myth about their culture, and which is very difficult to fight, which is very difficult to refute, there is something to refute, and also it is necessary to understand that we are not doing enough for this, because, to be honest, so is ukrainian society. ukrainian, ukrainian officials, politicians, never made a special bet on culture, as

some kind of tool, at least some kind of influence, culture was always considered something very, very secondary in our country, you see, there were even fights with the ministry of culture, which was called until recently, the ministry of culture and information policy, i would even say, information policy and culture, and there was more emphasis on that telethon and everything else, then the ministry was without a head until... not long ago, and now we see that the ministry has been renamed the ministry of culture and strategic communications, we have a new head, mykola tochytskyi, who was a diplomat, and it seems that a bet will be made on these communications are for diplomacy, it's not bad, but in order to play diplomacy, cultural diplomacy, to solve some issues, to convince foreigners of something with the help of culture, obviously you need to have this... culture and something to produce constantly, unfortunately, if we talk about cinema, that’s all, it doesn’t produce, these

films that were recently at the venice film festival, our ukrainian ones, they were made without state funding, already our authors of original cinema, they are looking for money elsewhere , because the state cinema is everything, it bets on serials, it bets on commercial cinema, on not very good quality cinema, which maybe should be, but obviously not at the expense of... the author's, which goes to various film festivals , like this this is our history, i'm not talking about the fact that we still don't have any state policy, about how we should act so as not to be reactive, so as not to put out fires, that's how we are now running with that movie russians in the war, but there is always something going on, and we organize some kind of protests, it shouldn't be like that, some kind of strategy should be developed in 2.5 years, even more. how do we communicate these stories, because if there are these

russians who are constantly visiting various film festivals, then obviously this does not happen for the first time and not for the second time, we have been seeing this for 2.5 years, and we should already be able to react to it. kornii hrytsyuk, we are finally in direct contact. korni, hello. hello, and i... i watched your movie, i have a preview, and firstly, i really liked it, and secondly, i, you know, now we can show its trailer, you have, it seems, two trailers at once i will remind our viewers that this is a film where you talk about how russia uses cinema as propaganda, and there you give an example of all these films that western audiences do not you see, there are like two brothers and everything like that, and you know, i would... i looked again and i caught myself thinking that this was some kind of story that you had completely verified, it was

diplomatic, but you are just based on theses, those are some of the biggest well, the myths that exist in the heads of people there in western europe, in america, in canada, about russians, about russian culture, you seem to break with this film, for example, you show, well, the heroes of the film, yes, and you tell? about the fact that russians, simple russians, they, for example, did not forgive the management of the loss in the first the chechen war, as they call it, tell me, please, did you really check? here are these theses, can you call the film vash zinema a certain kind of counter-propaganda? well, as for what you believed, it just probably went that way by itself in the sense that we watched what russian films were released during the last 30 years, and how these films were actually related to those and

domestic political russian events and russian foreign policy events, and at some point i really... understood that sometimes it is very difficult to understand where reality is and where cinema, because russian politicians, they very often quote the heroes of russian films, and the heroes of russian films, in turn, very often quote putin, yeltsin, medvedev, or other russian leaders, so everything is mixed up in them so much that it seems to me that they if they believed very strongly in their propaganda, in their power, which they show in these films, and because, well, why did this happen, well... it seems to me because they really invest in it huge money, huge resources and very much use cinema as another, as another a tool for promoting one's own interests. and kornii, how does the audience abroad react to your tape, and tell me, firstly, where have you already shown it, and secondly, what were the reactions, and i am interested in the question, because after every

screening at festivals, there is a q&a, there is communicating with the film crew, or not? was your story so revealing for the public and did they talk about the fact that they did not know this before? well, in fact, the film is just starting its festival journey, we only showed it in ukraine so far during the odesa film festival, and actually next month we are showing it in october in luxembourg, and then in november we will have screenings in germany. poland, for next year we also have screenings planned there in latvia, in the usa, and in some other countries, so i actually did not communicate with the european audience after the screenings, but i communicated with europeans during the stage of working on this film, during of the so -called development of this project, when we went to various european platforms and

presented the project of this film, i had the opportunity to talk with people from the film industry. from the european film industry and for many of these film professionals, well, it was really a shock that russian cinema is not only zvyagintsev, there is torkovsky and something else that they are used to seeing at major film festivals, russian cinema can be different, and russian cinema for it really terrifies this internal use, that's why i heard such feedback. and how were the copyright issues resolved in general, because your... film mostly consists of all these russian agitations, how is it all resolved, is it how you co-purchased them or in some other way, because copyright is such a serious thing if we show a film, especially at film festivals, and well, this film is a purely pirated film, you can say that, that is, we did not

pay a single penny, of course, to the russian rights holders for these films, we talked with lawyers in... with lawyers in germany, in principle, if this film is non-commercial, if it is something like an educational film , that is, you can say an educational or a film, well, a cultural one a product that is shown at film festivals, in principle, it is not necessary to have the rights, because if this film is an author's statement, and you support the author's statements with specific scenes from these films, if these screenings are not commercial, then you can actually use it, of course, we had huge problems with... finding financing for this film, because there is no european film fund or european television, they are not ready to finance such a film in which the rights are not cleared, and now with film festivals, well, it's everyone a film festival should decide for itself whether it is ready to show such a film or not, that is, we have been approached by quite a few film festivals, there are such prestigious european film festivals, you can

say of an average level, above average level, and they would be ready to show such a film , them... if this issue of rights does not worry them much, and we talk a lot with people who are specifically engaged in cultural diplomacy there from the ukrainian institute and so on, they constantly emphasize that we need to choose the right rhetoric when we we communicate with foreigners, moreover, we have to choose the right rhetoric for the countries, because there you have to communicate with the germans in one way, they understand some intonations well, with the french, not so much, you have to do it differently and so on, with canadians from... states and everything else, maybe you have already understood some points, which rhetoric, perhaps familiar to us and which seems fair to us... foreigners in general, i mean western europe, canada, the states, will categorically not accept, but well this is very similar, it seems to me

a difficult question, it is both interesting and difficult at the same time, i think that in principle they still cannot perceive many ukrainian films, especially those documentaries or dramas about the war, as something exactly objective, they still believe that it is subjective, that it is traumatized. these are now not trying to look for and watch good russian films, which is a very strong generalization on our part, so actually, when we made this zinema film, we wanted to show that okay, yes, you know there is russian cinema, festival-going to go to serebryanikov, go to zvyagentsev, but besides that, russia invests huge resources in cinema of a completely different direction, and you don't see these films, you don't know them, but that's what they are, they directly pay off. and with the aggressive rhetoric of russian politicians and with russian propagandists, and it seems to me that our task, perhaps, is not to prove

something to them, but to force them, perhaps, to dig and be a little more immersed in the processes that, after all, for many russians, supposedly cultural and artistic projects will still meet the ears of the fsb, or if you move a little to the side, you can understand that many russian producers, directors, whom we know for conventionally art-house cinema. if they don't hesitate to shoot something for propaganda, we still have literally two minutes left , i want to talk, i watched yours too, well , i don't know if it's a film, you can call it a project, i want to live within the project, it's already for the russians, yes, we convince them that let's give up, they won't do anything with you here, and you did such an interview with the russians for 51 minutes. captives from here i see that you have thrown it all on youtube 11 july and already almost a million views, you also watched what these

military men told you, and i simply advise everyone to watch it all, because, let's be honest, at some stages it was simply funny to me, how is this man who is shown , as he talks about some conspiracy theories, comes to the conclusion that after all, this whole war is this whole thing, it was started by a bunch of these people. that everything is decided by the peaceful power of these 10 people, that it is not putin, everything, it is not zelensky, it is not even biden, it was very cool, tell me for whom you did this project, and will you actually do something similar, well, if we did this project together with gur of ukraine, yes, with our military, who actually wanted us to record it for history. how are russian prisoners of war actually being held now, how is it happening, and well, it seems to me that this project, it is also working to ensure that the russians

see how many of their soldiers are actually in ukrainian captivity, find their own there and not block these exchanges, and but lately, as we can see, plus-minus exchanges have gone because that many conscripts from the kursk region were captured there, so in such projects they still have such a yes and very well, if i could say, well, practical. function, but of course that this film, as it shows, it seems to me that in the head of the russian military, how bad everything is there, and they really translated it into english, foreigners can watch it and draw their own conclusions, it seems to me that although these people are in captivity, and of course we can discount that they don't say everything as they think, but it seems to me that even the way they communicated with by us and what they told us, still terrifies and gives insight. that this is not putin's war, that this is still a war of russians against ukrainians, so absolutely, and it is read quite clearly from one side, but from the other it is not, well, it really does not

look, it seems to me, like propaganda, although the devil knows, maybe it will be accepted somewhere in western europe, yes, but in any case , for our viewers, i advise you to watch this project on the youtube channel i want to live, it is our ukrainian project, root, thank you very much, we will wait for the success of your film. call, and we will ask you how people, foreigners react to him. let me remind you, our dear viewers, that we spoke with korniy hrytsyuk, who directed the film zinym, and about how the russian authorities use cinema in propaganda. we have, i forgot, we have an excerpt from this movie, let's watch it so you understand what it is. the explosion my name is kornii hrytsyuk, i am a ukrainian film director, this film is my visual exploration

of russian. the photographer, who is an important tool of the kremlin in its wars, not only against ukraine. chechens, you know, bandits, and professionally trained. but these are bandits. and chechens are bandits. all? yes, everyone. well, well, i think that we have seen all these films, we already understand what happened there, and finally we, many of us, by the way, are among us. only after the full-scale invasion did i understand all the intricacies of russian propaganda and what russia is, that is, let's be fair to ourselves before relying on all these westerners, we were also with, many of us were with such closed eyes, they finally flattened, and now our task is to help open the eyes of everyone else, too, for sure. with that, i bid you farewell, friends, have a relaxing weekend and see you next week.
