Belarus, a country in turmoil: Documentary, The Guardian
Mass protests erupted across Belarus following the widely disputed election that put President Alexander Lukashenko in office for a sixth term. Three Belarusian filmmakers have documented personal stories of those caught up in the political turmoil.
Maksim Shved was arrested, imprisoned, and then released as the protests around him swelled. Ekaterina Markavets observes the psychological burden of her fellow citizens – she worked with professional psychologists who set up a volunteer support service for people affected by current events. Andrei Kutsila follows a celebrated Belarusian broadcast journalist who worked for state TV for nearly 40 years and who is now in the hospital recovering from injuries sustained at a protest. All three filmmakers wonder what the future holds for their country and fellow citizens
