Film director Vitalijs Manskis, who lives in Latvia, has been painted in Moscow

“We cannot be intimidated by any problems we have had in the past. Of course, I wouldn’t want the people who host this festival to suffer in any way, or the spectators to suffer in any way, “said the director.

“It simply came to our notice then. There were situations where our guests were physically harmed, among other things. But again – the war has canceled everything, turned everything over, it has shifted the accents, ”explained Manski.

“And now I’m not even sure if we’re doing the right thing at Artdocfest in Russia,” the director said.
