  • The cut out | Wycięci29'

    The film "The cut out" is a story about three anarchists who were sentenced to prison after a wave of street protests in Belarus in 2020. People from over 10 countries united in practical solidarity. The starting point for the film was an artistic solidarity event, during which the film's participants took photos and recorded videos of three anarchists cut out of paper in the local landscape. Through a series of interviews with various people, viewers learn not only about the bocharets, but also gain insight into the political situation in Belarus.
