My Home, the capital - Song about Minsk - Music by Evgeny Glebov Sung here by Natalia Gayda and Anatoly Podgaisky
Minsk is the capital of Belarus and, as such, is the political, economic and scientific centre of the country.....When these photographs were taken, Minsk was part of the Soviet Union...
The first settlement on the territory of the modern city dates back to the 9th century. In 1067, The Tale of Bygone Years Minsk was mentioned when the sons of the Kiev Prince, Yaroslav the Wise, appeared beneath its walls....
When these photographs were taken, Minsk was within the territory of the Soviet Union and was awarded the title of Hero City in 1974 in recognition for the city's heroic defence during the Great Patriotic War when the city was occupied by Nazi forces and mostly destroyed.
Following the end of the War, Minsk was rebuilt, but not reconstructed. The historical centre was replaced in the late 1940s and 1950s by grand buildings, broad avenues and wide squares.

House arrest in Belarus. The story of an independent union leader
One year ago, leaders of the Independent Trade Union REP stood trial in Minsk. The politically motivated persecution of Henadz Fiadynich and Ihar Komlik culminated in a guilty verdict - 4 years of house imprisonment, a 5-year ban on holding managerial positions and heavy fines. The verdict turned Fiadynich’s home into a prison for 4 years. Viasna's new film follows the activist's daily life as he is serving the unlawful sentence.
