Protesters were deported on Friday after stripping the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival to protest Russia’s rape during the war in Ukraine.
On Twitter, she was identified as an SCUM activist who appeared to refer to the radical feminist in 1967. SCUM MANIFESTO.
There have been reports of military rape and other sexual attacks carried out by Russian forces against Ukrainian civilians as weapons of war.
U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said last month that the horrors particularly concern the city of Bucha “not the accidental actions of a fraudulent unit” but “targeted campaigns to kill , torture, rape, commit atrocities. “
On Tuesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky addressed the festival using a video link. He cites Charlie Chaplin’s The Great Dictator, which describes the satire of fascism.
“The hatred of the people will pass and the dictators will die and the power they stole from the people will be returned to the people,” Zelensky said. “And as long as people die, freedom will not die.”
He added: “Still, like now, there is a dictator. Again, as today, there is a war for freedom. “Like today, the cinema should not be silent”.
This was followed by applause.
In celebration of Wednesday, Ukrainian filmmakers were horrified by a French hunting show that honored actor Tom Cruise and the film “Top Gun: Maverick”. Reported by Agence France-Press.
