UMongameli wase-Ukraine uVolodymyr Zelensky ukhulume ngesixhumanisi sevidiyo esivela kuCannes Film Festival.Enkulumweni yakhe, uqhathanise ifilimu kaCharlie Chaplin ethi “The Great Dictator” namaqiniso empi yesimanje.

 Ikuyilungelo lami ukukhuluma nawe lapha.

Manene namanenekazi, Bangane Abathandekayo,

Ngifuna ukukutshela indaba, futhi izindaba eziningi ziqala ngokuthi “Nginendaba engizoyixoxa.”Kodwa kulokhu, isiphetho sibaluleke kakhulu kunokuqala.Ngeke ibe nesiphetho esivulekile sale ndaba, ezogcina iqede impi yeminyaka eyikhulu.

Impi yaqala ngesitimela esingena esiteshini (" Isitimela Esingena Esiteshini ", 1895), kwazalwa amaqhawe nezigebengu, kwase kuba nokungqubuzana okukhulu esikrinini, kwase kuba indaba esesikrinini yaba ngokoqobo, namamuvi. kwangena ezimpilweni zethu, kwase kuba amamuvi ezimpilo zethu.Yingakho ikusasa lomhlaba liboshelwe embonini yamafilimu.

Yileyo ndaba engifuna ukukutshela yona namuhla, mayelana nale mpi, ngekusasa lesintu.

Omashiqela abanonya kakhulu bekhulu lama-20 babaziwa ngokuthanda amamuvi, kodwa ifa elibaluleke kakhulu lemboni yamafilimu kwakuyifilimu ejabulisayo yemibiko yezindaba namafilimu abebekela inselele abashiqela.

I-Cannes Film Festival yokuqala yayihlelelwe uSepthemba 1, 1939. Nokho, kwagqashuka iMpi Yezwe Yesibili.Iminyaka eyisithupha, imboni yezamafilimu yayihlale iphambili empini, njalo inobuntu;Iminyaka eyisithupha imboni yamafilimu ibilwela inkululeko, kodwa ngeshwa nayo ibilwela izimfuno zomashiqela.

Manje, uma sibheka emuva kulawa mamuvi, singabona ukuthi inkululeko iwina kanjani isinyathelo ngesinyathelo.Ekugcineni, umashiqela wehluleka emzamweni wakhe wokunqoba izinhliziyo nezingqondo.

Maningi amaphuzu abalulekile endleleni, kodwa elinye elibaluleke kakhulu ngo-1940, kule filimu, awuboni i-villain, ungaboni muntu.Akabukeki njengeqhawe nhlobo, kodwa uyiqhawe langempela.

Leyo filimu, ekaCharles Chaplin ethi The Great Dictator, yehlulekile ukucekela phansi umashiqela wangempela, kodwa kwaba yisiqalo semboni yamabhayisikobho engazange ihlale phansi, ibukele futhi indibe.Imboni yezithombe ezinyakazayo isikhulumile.Ikhulume ukuthi inkululeko iyonqoba.

Lawa amagama ayezwakala esikrinini sonke ngaleso sikhathi, ngo-1940:

“Inzondo yabantu izophela, bafe ondlovukayiphikiswa, amandla abawathathe kubantu abuyele kubo.Wonke umuntu uyafa, futhi inqobo nje uma isintu singabhubhi, inkululeko ngeke ishabalale.”(The Great Dictator, 1940)

Kusukela ngaleso sikhathi, kuye kwenziwa amafilimu amaningi amahle kusukela kwakhuluma iqhawe likaChaplin.Manje wonke umuntu ubonakala eqonda: inganqoba inhliziyo yinhle, ayimbi;Isikrini sefilimu, hhayi indawo yokukhosela ngaphansi kwebhomu.Wonke umuntu wabonakala eqiniseka ukuthi yayingeke ibe khona enye inkondlo elama ngemva kokwesaba impi egcwele eyayisongela izwekazi.

Nokho, njengakuqala, bakhona omashiqela;Kwaphinda futhi, njengakuqala, impi yenkululeko yaliwa;Futhi kulokhu, njengakuqala, imboni akufanele ishaywe indiva.

Ngomhla zingama-24 kuNhlolanja wezi-2022, iRussia iqala impi enzima ne-Ukraine futhi iyaqhubeka nemashi yayo ibheke eYurophu.Impi enjani lena?Ngifuna ukunemba ngangokunokwenzeka: kufana nemigqa eminingi yama-movie kusukela ekupheleni kwempi yokugcina.

Iningi lenu liyizwile le migqa.Esikrinini, zizwakala zihlasimulisa umzimba.Ngeshwa, leyo migqa ifezekile.

Uyakhumbula?Khumbula ukuthi leyo migqa yayizwakala kanjani ku-movie?

“Uyanuka?Ndodana, kwakuyi-napalm.Ayikho enye into enuka kanje.Ngithanda igesi ye-napalm njalo ekuseni…. "(I-Apocalypse Manje, 1979)

Yebo, konke kwakwenzeka e-Ukraine ngalolo suku ekuseni.

Ngehora lesine ekuseni.Umcibisholo wokuqala waqhuma, kwaqala ukuhlasela kwezindiza, futhi ukufa kwawela umngcele wangena e-Ukraine.Igiya labo lipendwe ngento efanayo ne-swastika - umlingiswa ongu-Z.

"Bonke bafuna ukuba amaNazi ngaphezu kukaHitler."(Umdlali Wepiyano, 2002)

Amathuna amasha agcwele abantu abahlukunyeziwe nababulawa manje atholakala masonto onke kuzo zombili izindawo zaseRussia nezangaphambili.Ukuhlasela kweRussia kubulale izingane ezingama-229.

“Bayazi ukubulala kuphela!Bulala!Bulala!Batshala imizimba kulo lonke elaseYurophu…” (Rome, The Open City, 1945)

Nonke nibonile okwenziwa amaRussia eBucha.Nike nayibona iMariupol, nonke nake nayibona imisebenzi yensimbi ye-Azov nonke nabona amathiyetha ecekelwa phansi amabhomu aseRussia.Leyo thiyetha, ngendlela, yayifana kakhulu naleyo onayo manje.Izakhamuzi zabalekela ukuqhunyiswa ngamabhomu ngaphakathi kwenkundla yemidlalo yeshashalazi, lapho igama elithi “izingane” lalipendwe khona ngezinhlamvu ezinkulu ezigqamile endaweni yetiyela eseduze kwenkundla yemidlalo yaseshashalazini.Ngeke siyikhohlwe le thiyetha, ngoba isihogo besingeke sikwenze lokho.

“Impi akusona isihogo.Impi iyimpi, isihogo isihogo.Impi imbi kakhulu kunalokho.”(Isibhedlela sase-Army Field, 1972)

Ingaphezu kuka-2,000 imicibisholo yaseRussia eshaye i-Ukraine, yacekela phansi inqwaba yamadolobha namadolobhana ashisayo.

Abantu base-Ukraine abangaphezu kwengxenye yesigidi bathunjwa bayiswa eRussia, futhi amashumi ezinkulungwane kubo agqunywa emakamu okuhlushwa aseRussia.La makamu okuhlushwa ayefana namakamu okuhlushwa amaNazi.

Akekho owaziyo ukuthi zingaki zalezi ziboshwa ezisindile, kodwa wonke umuntu uyazi ukuthi ubani onecala.

“Ucabanga ukuthi insipho ingakugeza IZONO zakho?”( Jobe 9:30 )

Angicabangi kanjalo.

Manje, impi embi kakhulu kusukela ngeMpi Yezwe II iye yalwiwa eYurophu.Konke kungenxa yaleyo ndoda ehlezi ende eMoscow.Abanye babefa nsuku zonke, futhi manje ngisho nalapho othile ememeza ethi “Yeka!The Cut!”Laba bantu ngeke baphinde bavuke.

Ngakho-ke yini esiyizwa ku-movie?Ngabe imboni yamafilimu izothula noma izokhuluma?

Ingabe imboni yezamabhayisikobho izoma nje lapho kuphinde kuvele omashiqela, lapho impi yenkululeko iqala futhi, lapho futhi umthwalo usuphezu kobunye bethu?

Ukucekelwa phansi kwamadolobha ethu akusona isithombe esibonakalayo.Abantu abaningi base-Ukraine namuhla sebephenduke amaGuido, bezabalaza ukuchazela izingane zabo ukuthi kungani becashe ezindlini ezingaphansi ( Life is Beautiful, 1997).Abaningi base-Ukraine sebephenduke u-Aldo.U-Lt. Wren: Manje sesinemisele kuwo wonke umhlaba wethu (Inglourious Basterds, 2009)

Yebo, sizoqhubeka nokulwa.Akukho esingakwenza ngaphandle kokulwela inkululeko.Futhi ngiqinisekile ukuthi kulokhu, omashiqela bazophinde behluleke.

Kodwa isikrini sonke somhlaba okhululekile kufanele sizwakale, njengoba kwenza ngo-1940. Sidinga i-Chaplin entsha.Sidinga ukufakazela futhi ukuthi imboni yezamafilimu ayithuli.

Khumbula ukuthi kwakuzwakala kanjani:

“Ukuhaha kulimaza umphefumulo womuntu, kuvimbe umhlaba ngenzondo, futhi kusiqhubekisele osizini nasekuchithekeni kwegazi.Sikhule ngokushesha futhi ngokushesha, kodwa sizivalele: imishini isenze saceba, kodwa salamba kakhulu;Ulwazi lusenza singabi nathemba futhi sibe nokungabaza;Ubuhlakani busenza sibe nezinhliziyo.Sicabanga kakhulu futhi sizizwa sincane kakhulu.Sidinga ubuntu ngaphezu kwemishini, ubumnene ngaphezu kokuhlakanipha… Kulabo abangizwayo, ngithi: Ningapheli amandla.Kuzophela inzondo yabantu, bafe omashiqela.

Kumele siyinqobe le mpi.Sidinga imboni yama-movie ukuqeda le mpi, futhi sidinga wonke amazwi ukuze sicule inkululeko.

Futhi njengenjwayelo, imboni yamafilimu kufanele kube eyokuqala ukukhuluma!

Ngiyabonga nonke, niphile Ukraine.
