THE PHOTOGRAPHER FROM THE SQUARE OF CHANGES dir. Maksim Shved, Belarus, 2023 | doc film | ENG sub

Jauhien Atciecki has been involved in photography for over 20 years. In Minsk he lived in a house near "Transformation Square".
Starting in August 2020, he took photos of a small yard, which became a symbol of self-organization and brave protest.
Jauhien Atciecki's project, which later turned into an album, included interviews with local residents and photos of the most significant stages of the life of "Plac Przemian": destruction and renovation of the "DJs Przemian" mural, protest actions, backyard concerts, detention of Ściapan Łatypaw, mural in honor of Raman Bandarenka.
Jauhien did not immortalize the "famous" pacification of this place because on November 15, 2020, he was detained for participating in the protests. Then he went to Ukraine and now he continues documenting reality there
