STORY: Note: This post will be sent to you without narration. Volodymyr Zelenskyy, President of Ukraine “And a logical question arises from this: on which side should culture and art stand? Should they stay out of politics? Russia started a war against us and for almost a year our country was bombed, peaceful cities have been destroyed. For almost a year people have been killed, women and children have been killed, the world has been threatened with a nuclear attack, environmental, energy and food crises have been brought about on every continent. Can art stay out of politics? Should it? cinema to stay out of politics? That’s maybe an internal question too, but today it’s extremely relevant again.” “Culture and cinema can stay out of politics, but not when it’s a policy of aggression, not when it’s a policy of mass crime.”
