Na żywo (Live), feature film, 14 min

Peaceful protests in Minsk following the fatal beating of a Belarusian oppositionist are quelled by the police. Journalists from an independent Belarusian television station are the only ones broadcasting the events live from the windows of a nearby building. When a police drone targets them, they must quickly decide whether to continue reporting or prioritise their safety. What will prevail – truth or freedom? A film inspired by true events.
