Long Live Belarus

About This Movie

Long Live Belarus is an intriguing piece of animation that brings together the voices of over 50 animators from 19 different countries. It’s not just a collection of animated shorts; it's a visceral reaction to the tumultuous events surrounding the protests in Belarus. The tone shifts between somber and hopeful, reflecting the struggle for freedom and the fight for fair elections. Each animator offers their own unique lens, creating a tapestry of styles that feels both disjointed and cohesive at the same time. The pacing varies, with some segments packed with urgency while others linger more contemplatively. It’s a raw and emotional portrayal, showcasing the power of art in activism, and the use of the white-red-white flag as a recurring symbol really ties it together.
