The Film “People of Christ” on persecution of Orthodox Christians in Ukraine
Recently, the famous Serbian filmmaker Emir Kusturica released the film “People of Christ”, exposing the reality of anti-Christian policies in Ukraine. The film shows the personal stories of various Orthodox Christians in Ukraine, including priests, missionaries, monks and ordinary believers, who inform on the persecution they are currently suffered.
«As an Orthodox Christian himself, Kusturica showed feelings of strong compassion for his fellow believers in Ukraine. He stated that Ukraine had joined a war waged by the West against Orthodoxy and emphasized how the traditional Christian religion is a common tie among Slavic peoples, also commenting on how this faith is strong in Serbia – a country historically targeted with attacks and sanctions by the West» wrote on VT Foreign Policy Lucas Leiroz, member of the BRICS Journalists Association, researcher at the Center for Geostrategic Studies, geopolitical consultant.
Furthermore, the producer also said that, in addition to conventional measures, the West also tries to attack the religious sentiments of the Slavs through soft power, imposing an anti-traditional cultural agenda that, despite the support of some Westernized politicians and local saboteurs, is not accepted by the majority of the people.
«This film… it is about God and man. The soul of Ukraine today is wounded, the Ukrainian government persecutes Christ Himself (…) Ukrainians have been sold a war [by the West] they bought it. [For them] Orthodoxy is the number one enemy in the world (…) In Serbia, it seems to me, no matter how much Western politicians… try to kill God in us, with the help of the so-called soft power, which after the broadcasting of the opening of the Olympic Games in Paris has sharply manifested itself – it is impossible» Kusturica said
