A conversation with camerawoman and Studio Tatyana co-founder Tatyana Loginova from September 2024 in preparation for a Forum & Friends event, adapted for film by Christiane Büchner. For technical reasons, the organisers were only able to capture an audio recording of the conversation – this recording has been supplemented by animated sequences from Christiane Büchner as well as video footage, photographs and documents from the following sources: the Hildegard Westbeld Collection in the archive of Kinothek Asta Nielsen and the private archives of Alla Tkatchenko and Tatyana Loginova.
In 2003, Studio Tatyana was shut down by the Lukashenka administration, but the filmmakers' work continued: this is the studio's final manifesto, completed after the closure using the archival material that managed to escape confiscation. Investigative and unsettling, the film documents the rise of the dictator and the political repression – including political assassinations – from the perspective of Russian and Belarusian politicians and citizens attempting to resist.
