10/24, 19:00 · Kino Centrum

Viva Belarus! presents the lot of the leading oppositionist in Belarus and the reality of a country that struggles with the dictatorship of Alexander Lukashenko. The main protagonist is Miron, a rock musician. He rebels openly against the system that persecutes his fellow countrymen — especially those, who have the courage to speak Belarusian. Taking such stance exposes his rock band to the risk of being included in the “black list”, which is tantamount to a ban on public performances. His personal price for criticising the government is conscription and severe repression from his army commanders. Appalled at successive manifestations of bullying in the military, Miron stirs a true storm in the anti-system mass media, as he and his girlfriend Wiera — a beautiful girl and equally rebellious in spirit — start an Internet journal, in which they reveal they darkest sides of life in the regime-controlled army barracks. When his entries in the journal start an Internet revolution, the authorities decide to hit the invincible rebel in his weakest point...
