On YouTube Right Simple EU There was an interview with Jack Międlar, author of a needed and widely commented documentary series ‘Neighbours. Last Witnesses of Ukrainian genocide in Poles”. Conversation, entitled "Meal: adequate Talmudisation and flagrantisation of historical policy" (link to recording) addresses issues of the second episode of the series and the broader context of historical communicative in Poland and in the world. The creator announces 4 episodes. The first was already posted on YouTube (HERE) and DVD (HERE) and the second part is available on the platform FlixClassic.pl (HERE).
In an interview, Międlar says directly: Polish historical policy is, in his opinion, "absorbed by Talmudism on the 1 hand and flagism on the other". In this way it refers to the phenomenon of the denial and relativisation of crimes committed by Ukrainians on the Polish population in the 1940s, as well as to current attempts to impose political correctness in speaking about the suffering of Poles in the east Borders.
The creator explains that Second episode of Neighbours It focuses on the dramatic accounts of the last surviving witnesses of Ukrainian genocide in Volyn, Lublin and east Małopolska. As she points out, these are aged people, frequently forgotten by state institutions, and their stories are the last chance to preserve the memory of that tragedy and to defy the historical forgery produced by Kiev and the banderophiles of all ointment.
Międlar besides talks about the difficulties associated with the implementation of the material: the deficiency of support from mainstream media, as well as attacks and censorship attempts from environments that do not want the fact about genocide in Poles to be spoken out loud. At the same time, he regrets that in Poland he does not have the courage to officially put the substance in relation to Ukraine — especially in the context of the mass support that our country has given to its neighbour from across the east border.
The interview is simply a strong voice in the public debate and at the same time an invitation to reflect on how Poland tells its own communicative and to whom it gives its voice. As Międlar repeatedly points out: "The future cannot be built by falsifying the past."
The movie “Neighbours” earns designation at global movie festivals, despite the deficiency of interest from the biggest Polish television. Watch this episode to learn more about forgotten past cards and the difficulties of independent documentary cinema.
