Prihodnost medijev v sodobnih avtokracijah / The future of media in modern autocracies

Festival bo letos obiskal Nikolaj Krastev, bolgarski novinar in analitik z dolgoletnimi izkušnjami v mednarodnem novinarstvu. Projekciji njegovega filma Druga Rusija bo sledila debata o prihodnosti medijev v sodobnih avtokracijah.

Opis filma:

Druga Rusija je film iz leta 2024, ki se osredotoča na rusko opozicijo in zgodbo znane ruske novinarke Marine Ovsiannikove. Ovsiannikova je postala mednarodno prepoznavna, ko je javno protestirala proti ruski propagandi na državnem kanalu Pervij kanal. Zaradi tega dejanja je bila prisiljena zapustiti Rusijo. Film razkriva življenje in izzive ruskih oporečnikov ter osebne stiske novinarke, ki se je zoperstavila državnemu propagandnemu aparatu. “Druga Rusija” tako ponuja vpogled v alternativno zgodbo Rusije – tisto, ki se bori za resnico in neodvisnost v izjemno težkih okoliščinah.

Film description:

The Other Russia is a 2024 film focusing on the Russian opposition and the story of the famous Russian journalist Marina Ovsiannikova. Ovsiannikova became internationally known when she publicly protested against Russian propaganda on the state-run channel Pervy Kanal. This action forced her to leave Russia. The film reveals the life and challenges of Russian dissidents and the personal hardships of a journalist who stood up to the state propaganda apparatus. “The Other Russia” thus offers a glimpse into an alternative story of Russia – one that fights for truth and independence in extremely difficult circumstances.
