A movie about Rastsislau Lapitski to be shown on Belsat TV Channel (photo)
Belsat TV Channel has prepared several new movies for the new season, including Valery Mazynski's documentary "As a strike of a lightning". The documentary is about the leader of anti-Soviet underground organization Rastsislau Lapitski. Memories of those who knew Lapitski personally are widely used in the movie. As it was informed by the director Valer Mazynski, to the European Radio for Belarus, it was not difficult to get the wintesses of those events to speak:
Mazynski: "These people are the ones who are not afraid - they have nothing to be afraid of. Old people have less things to fear. It wasn't a problem. Naturally, not with everyone. I think there's no fear in the way we imagine it. People do speak... Moreover, it's Western Belarus. Probably, it would be the other way in the Eastern Belarus. There's no as much fear in the Western Belarus, as in the East".
Apart from documentary materials, there is also event reconstruction with participation of actors, in the movie.
Let us remind you, Rastsislau Lapitski (1928-1950) was in 1948-1949 the leader of the anti-communist underground pupils movement im Miadzel and Smarhon districts. Sentenced to death, the 22-year-old youngster refused to sign a request on mercy. The movie is the screen version of a book of the same name, written by historian Mikhas Charniauski.
