Alex: Hello, Kate! Now you’ll hear my classmates speaking about films made in Belarus. Sveta, what Belarusian film can you recommend?
S1: Well, I like “The Kinder-Vileysky Ghost”. It’s a comedy, a horror and a fantasy story. The ❌ isn’t ❌ but it is amusing. The family of an unlucky producer moves to an old house in Vileyka District. The house has a dark secret – a real ❌ which isn’t happy to see the family. The main characters fight against past mistakes, learn to be ❌ and ❌. I like the ❌ effects and the songs. Vyacheslav Pavlut, a famous Belarusian actor, stars in the film. His acting is so ❌ that he got the prize for the best actor’s role in a children’s film at the “Listapad” – XX International festival.
Alex: Thank you, Sveta. “Listapad” is the most important event for all Belarusian film lovers. What about you, Petya? What Belarusian film did you last see?
S2: ❌ I saw two Belarusian films last month: “Timur and the team” and “The Amazing Travel”. The first film is a story about a ten-year-old boy called Timur who spends his summer holidays in his grandad’s village. One day in an old barn he finds the book “Timur and His Team” by Arkadiy Gaidar. The book ❌ him so much that he decides to have his own team. The children do a lot of good things for the villagers and experience ❌ adventures. There are no great special effects but it’s an ❌ family film.
Alex: And the other film, “The Amazing Travel”? Is it an adventure film?
S2: You’re right. It’s a comedy full of ❌ and ❌ adventures. The plot is really ❌. Paracelsus, the famous alchemist, gets into modern Minsk from the dark Medieval Age. Two ❌, Bernard and William, follow him and want to burn him in the fire. The main ❌ are Belarusian students Vasya Fedorov and his sister who need to send Paracelsus back to the past. Vasya is bad at science and it’s a ❌ task for him. Most of all, I liked the great ❌. The actors played such comic characters that everybody kept smiling during the whole film.
Alex: Sounds interesting! Thank you, Petya. Slava, what’s your favourite Belarusian film?
Slava: In fact, I prefer playing computer games to watching films. But a few days ago my class went to the cinema and we saw a cool ❌ film –“The Gamer’s Rules”. The main characters are a team of gamers who play a computer game and find a message from Radziwill about a hidden treasure. And their adventures begin. At first, they think only about the money but finally they ❌ that the most important thing is the relationship. The gamers’ roles were played by Belarusian teenagers. I know that they
performed all the hard ❌ themselves: rode motorbikes, got into the church ❌ and took part in the underwater scenes. The shooting took place in Minsk, Bobruysk and the Nesvizh Castle. It’s such an ❌ film that I’m going to watch it again with my brother. I recommend it to adventure lovers who are interested in Belarusian ❌ and history.
Alex: Thanks a lot! So, Kate, we have some awesome Belarusian films but I’m not sure that you can see them in English.
