In the death row cell (video)
The new video,
dedicated to the topic of the death penalty, successfully combines
video shots from real death row cells and a fragment of a performance
which was demonstrated during the V World Congress against the Death
Penalty in Madrid. The film was edited by film director Viktar
Tratsiakou.
V World Congress against the Death Penalty was
held on 12-15 June in Madrid (following the Congresses
in Strasbourg (2001), Montreal (2004),
Paris (2007) and Geneva (2010)). On 14 June the round table "Europe:
A Strategy for the Future" was held,
focusing on the relations
between the European Union, the European
Parliament, the Council of Europe, the OSCE
and Belarus and Russia on the issue of the death penalty. Human
rights defender Valiantsin Stefanovich, a leader of the campaign
“Human Rights Defenders against the Death Penalty in Belarus”,
took part in the work of the round table. On 15 June a March against
against the Death
Penalty was
held in the streets of Madrid.
