February 1, one of the most popular TV channels in France, Canal+, will show a documentary film about the atrocities of Ukrainian nazis in the Trade Union House in central Odessa in May 2014.
“In September I went to Ukraine and made a film called “the Mask of the Revolution”. I wanted to know the details of the Odessa massacre because it is completely silenced in Europe, nobody really knew about it, including me. When I got there, I was struck — 45 people were killed in the center of Europe, and no one knew!”, a French journalist and the author of the film Paul Moreira said.
Before broadcasting of the film in France, the Ukrainian media has accused a French journalist of being a “pro-Russian propagandist”. According to Moreira, the film “the Mask of the revolution” made him a “terrorist.”
“I wanted to avoid black and white perceptions and see what has actually happened, to understand what these battalions, brigades, self-defense, which were on the front lines of the Ukrainian revolution, looked like”, he said. Earlier, the UN Special Rapporteur on extrajudicial killings, Christof Hynes, after his visit to Ukraine said that most evidence of the crimes during Maidan protests and Odessa massacre had been destroyed. It is noteworthy that most of Ukrainian criminals are still not punished.
