Pre-premiere screening of the Brotherhood film about Afghan events
A pre-premiere screening of a new film by Pavel Lungin was held today at the Moscow Illusion Cinema on Kotelnicheskaya Embankment. We are talking about the film "Brotherhood", which is dedicated to the thirtieth anniversary of the withdrawal of Soviet troops from Afghanistan. The premiere of the film itself will take place on 9 this May.
Today's show was of a closed nature - not for the mass audience. Among those invited to the Pre-Premier are veterans of the Afghan war, including members of the All-Russian organization “Officers of Russia” and specifically the chairman of the Presidium of the society, Hero of Russia Sergey Lipovoy. Also, representatives of the journalistic community were invited to the pre-premiere show. The film "Brotherhood" was watched at once by three former directors of the Federal Security Service. One of them is Nikolai Kovalev, who is actually co-writing the script for this film.
"Brotherhood" was filmed according to the real memories of the parties to the conflict. The plot covers the period preceding the withdrawal of the Soviet contingent from Afghanistan. The urgent military tape tells about the plan for the withdrawal through the Salang Pass, which was controlled by the grouping of the field commander of the Mujahideen Hoshem. In the plot used an episode in which a Soviet pilot was captured by the Mujahideen.
The film also demonstrates the work of the military rule “not to abandon ours” against the background of unfolding political intrigues and considerations of national importance.

Cinema is not made specifically for "Afghans"; cinema is made for everyone. And the film is intended for young people as well. This is a movie about war. And this topic is still a little reflexed here. After the Vietnam War, the whole culture was in the USA. Much is said about human dramas, tragedies. About what it means for a particular person to return from the war. We do not pay attention to this. But it needs to be said for everyone, including the youth. Now the whole too is a sluggish war, in the same Syria, on our borders. And you need to talk about it.
