Nom-de-guerre 'Bilorus'

Film director Anton Tsialezhnikau presented a film about a Belarusian who was fighting for freedom of Ukraine.

The leading character is a soldier with a nom-de-guerre 'Bilorus'. He risks his life for free and indivisible Ukraine, he believes his homeland's fate also depends on it, Belsat TV channel reports.
The character was born in eastern Belarus. He was on the Maidan and now participates in military actions close to Donetsk. The Belarusian is fighting in the volunteer corps "Right Sector" - military unit sold as the main enemy of Russian citizens. The warrior does not have Ukrainian citizenship and from a legal standpoint his stay is illegal. He can expect neither rewards nor pension.
"I came to the Maidan because of Mikhail Zhyzneuski's death", he tells.
About 100 Belarusians are warring in the Donbas on the Ukrainian side. What does motivate young men to pick up a weapon? Film director Anton Tsialezhnikau tells the story.
"25 years ago citizens of the USSR did not ask themselves what their compatriots did during the Civil Wars in Spain, Viet Nam, Egypt or Afghanistan, he says. It all was covered over with beautiful words 'international duty'. Nobody still can explain why our nations used to sacrifice their lives.
I think such solidarity for Belarusians takes place not somewhere in Africa or the Middle East, but in neighbouring Ukraine. The Kremlin has triggered off another fratricidal war. In times of Euromaidan tens of Belarusians followed their hearts. They saw all the injustice in Ukraine, parallels of Yanukovich's regime and the current one in our country. However, the Maidan's victory became the reason for war in eastern Ukraine and many Belarusian patriots could not betray a fraternal nation and even more people arrived.
These people realize that the end of this war will result in Belarus's future, whether we are the next who will be swallowed up by 'Russian peace'. By sacrificing their lives, they can expect mutual solidarity and support of the Ukrainian people ".
The song "Don't give up!" and music are written by Aliaksandr Charkashyn, the composer, Belarusian volunteer-chaplain in Ukraine. The film director met him on the front.
Anton Tsialezhnikau spent almost 2 months in the ATO zone. He made his documentary there, as well as a story about volunteer corps of "Right Sector".
Film director Anton Tsialezhnikau in his films "Belarusian resistance" (Белорусский резистанс), "Belarus under German occupation" (Беларусь под немецкой оккупацией), "Playing mock battles" (Игра в войнушку), "Cursed and Forgotten" (Проклятые и забытые) reveals Belarusian history's true character. His music videos with a historical retrospective for a known rock band "Дзяцюкі" – "Forest brothers" (Лесные братья) and "Guys-Bałachowcy"(Хлопцы-балаховцы) – made him a fortune. While shooting one music videos the director was arrested with all his crew and musicians.
