On August 28, in the Donetsk’ cinema “Zvezdochka» took place the premiere of the German film journalist and Director Mark Bartalmay “Ukrainian agony – hidden war”. The premiere was attended by the author of the documentary, and part of his crew team and translator. Unfortunately, the small hall of “Zvezdochka” couldn’t accommodate everyone who wants, many people stood in the aisle and on the stairs. Before watching Mark Bartalmay performed in front of spectators and journalists. German Director was amazed at the number of people who came to his film.
“Thank you very much! I can’t believe so many people came today,” sensually said German visitor.
Also Bartalmay commended Donetsk city and its residents.
Starting his presentation Mark Bartalmay immediately focused on the fact that this documentary film is designed for a Western audience.
“This film is primarily aimed at a Western audience. It is unlikely you will see here something particularly new for you, since you all live for a year in all this. I just want this film you have left in your memory. Since this film I express my respect to you,” said Bartalmay.
The main objective pursued by it is to prove to the German media and the world that here in the Donbas there are no terrorists, and the new Kiev government during the year engaged in genocide against its own people. Unfortunately the West still don’t understand it.
“By September 2014, our film crew for two months worked in the vicinity of Donetsk. Then we were in the middle of the action – between the first and second line of fire. The situation was very dangerous,” shared memories Mark Bartalmay.
He also said that the idea to create a full-fledged film came to him immediately:
“Initially to do a movie was not planned, we just shot short stories, but then we realized that it is necessary to remove the full movie. There was a certain team that helped to remove: our journalists who worked there and my friends from the militia, which also contributed to the creation of the film”, said the director of “The Agony of Ukraine”.
In his film German Director shall issue to the audience – the whole truth about the “peaceful” Maidan, entry the Crimea into the Russian Federation, the tragedy on May, 2 in “The House of trade Unions”, the beginning of the genocide in the South-East, the violent confrontation between the militias and Western mercenaries. This film is military reports, where the author himself loaded with equipment, going along with the militia on the APC. Bartalmay communicated not only with military, but also with civilians. Unlike his German counterparts’ journalists he immediately understood the situation, seeing that the Maidan initially paid for by the USA, and behind the so-called peaceful demonstrators there is a terrible force. And the main goal of the United States is not to help gain independence for Ukraine, and to draw into the war Russia.
By his film Mark Bartley would like to said about the fact that Poroshenko came to power through a coup and at the same time came up with the ATO on April; in order to be quits with freedom-loving Donbas; the burning of the Ukrainian radicals people in “The Trade Unions House” is the campaign of intimidation of Odessa; crashed of Malaysian Boeing was shot down deliberately; that there is no peaceful solution to the conflict in the South-East was never in the plans of the Kiev junta; that on Donbas there is a full-scale war.
The German Director has plans to remove the trilogy.
