导演安德烈·库齐拉执导的纪录片《来自沉默国家的信件》于2026年9月9日在威尼斯电影节首映，该片由德国之声联合制作1。这部作品通过政治犯、流亡者和地下活动人士的书信与故事，深入记录了白俄罗斯卢卡申科政权自2020年抗议浪潮以来的系统性镇压1。据人权组织Viasna统计，当局已记录至少65000起政治动机的逮捕和拘留1，同时有30万至50万白俄罗斯人流亡海外1。
纪录片通过具体人物的遭遇展现了这一镇压的广度和深度1。维托尔德·阿舒拉克因参加抗议被判处5年监禁，最终在狱中死亡；学生卡西亚·布日科因同样原因被判处2年半监禁1。此外，曾任刑事侦查官的安德烈·奥斯塔波维奇在2020年8月选择辞职并公开谴责警察暴力1。尽管面对严峻的政治环境，导演库齐拉表示，团结、连接和爱能够带来希望1。
Director Andrei Kutsila's documentary "Letters from a Silenced Country," co-produced with Deutsche Welle, premiered at the Venice Film Festival on September 9, 2026, presenting intimate accounts of political persecution in Belarus under President Lukashenko's regime since the 2020 protests 1. The film draws on correspondence and testimonies from political prisoners, exiles, and underground activists to document the scale of state violence, with human rights organization Viasna recording at least 65,000 arrests and detentions motivated by political reasons 1.
The documentary features several stark cases illustrating the regime's crackdown. Witold Ashurak, who participated in protests, was sentenced to five years in prison where he subsequently died 1. Student Katsia Bruchko received a two-and-a-half-year sentence for her involvement in demonstrations 1. Former criminal investigator Andrei Ostapovich resigned in August 2020 and publicly condemned police violence 1. Between 300,000 and 500,000 Belarusians have fled the country 1.
Despite the severity of repression, Kutsila expressed that unity, connection, and love offer grounds for hope 1. The director's commitment to documenting Belarus's political crisis builds on his earlier award-winning work, "When Flowers Stop Being Silent," completed in 2021 1.
