The projects are designed to ensure the “protection of state interests” and demonstrate “the preservation of cultural identity, tradition and sovereignty.”
Popular in the Russian Federation: Boy’s Word, Serf, etc. filmed as content for the re-election of Russian President Vladimir Putin. This was reported by the Russian publication Meduza in connection with internal documents of the Russian Presidential Administration.
It was noted that in the spring of 2023, a meeting was held in the Kremlin on Putin’s upcoming re-election, which was then exactly one year away. There, administration employees, federal officials and political strategists were shown a multi-page presentation called Creative Content for the Elections.
He was introduced by the head of the department of public projects of the Putin administration, Sergei Novikov, in which the department now makes the main decisions on the state cultural policy of the Russian Federation.
The presentation was prepared by Novikov in collaboration with the head of the Internet Development Institute, Alexey Goreslavsky. During the war, Iran became the distributor of large funds spent on the production of films, TV series and other cultural products, many of which were propaganda in nature.
According to the text, the AP and Iran have prepared several dozen “creative projects” for the 2024 elections.
Novikov’s subordinates manage their promotion with the help of bloggers and media, and Goreslavsky’s department manages digital and outdoor advertising, as well as marketing in general. ANO Dialog, another propaganda structure, which has branches all over Russia and has been spreading fakes about Ukraine since February 24, 2022, was also brought to task. The presentation says that Dialogue members are tasked with “distributing content across regions.”
The document lists the names of films and TV series planned to be “distributed” and “promoted” in connection with the Russian presidential election. Among them are projects “on the theme of the Northern Military District” (that is, about the war against Ukraine), as well as very popular mainstream films and TV series, which are very difficult to suspect of promoting the agenda of state.
The documentary also includes the comedy Kholop-2, the drama about figure skating Ice-3, the musical The Town Musicians of Bremen, the fairy tale film At the Command of the Pike, and the TV series A Boy’s Word.
According to the authors of the presentation, these and other projects are designed to ensure the “protection of national interests” and demonstrate “the preservation of cultural identity, tradition and sovereignty.”
Let us remind you that earlier in Kyiv law enforcement officers detained a group of young men. Minors are preparing a series of crimes in the capital after watching the popular Russian TV series The Boy’s Word.
