SUMMARY:My Duty to Not Stay Silent - A Documentary by Vladimir Kara-Murza
DESCRIPTION:MLI is proud to co-sponsor the screening of this film\, particularly given the Institute’s friendship with Vladimir Kara-Murza and considering the vital role that he and others have played in standing up to tyranny. Due to the fact that MLI as organization and many of our fellows have been sanctioned or blacklisted by Russia\, we understand acutely just how vital the thought leadership of activists like Kara-Murza is and how precarious it can be to undertake such work.  \nOn October 18\, 2022\, at 5:00 PM (EST) the Raoul Wallenberg Centre for Human Rights (RWCHR) will host a screening and discussion of My Duty to Not Stay Silent\, a film by imprisoned leading Russian opposition figure and RWCHR Senior Fellow Vladimir Kara-Murza about Soviet dissident Father Georgy Edelstein. \nEvgenia Kara-Murza\, Vladimir Kara-Murza’s wife and Advocacy Coordinator for the Free Russia Foundation\, will introduce the documentary and lead the discussion with RWCHR International Chair Irwin Cotler. We hope you can join us for this important event in support of the case and cause of Vladimir Kara-Murza\, who was arrested and has since been imprisoned in Moscow for his public opposition to Vladimir Putin’s war on Ukraine. \nAbout the Film: \n“If we stay silent\, we participate in the evil that is happening in our world. I must say what I think – and the results do not concern me.” This is the story of a remarkable man in a remarkably difficult era. It is a film about true tolerance and true faith\, the relationship between Jewishness and Christianity\, the collaboration between Church leaders and a totalitarian state\, and the importance of speaking the truth – no matter the consequences. The documentary won two special awards at the 26th Stalker International Film Festival (Moscow\, 2020). \nThe film will be screened in Russian with English subtitles. \nDate: October 18\, 2022 \nTime: 5:00PM \nLocation: 180 Wellington Street\, Room 325\, Ottawa\, ON \n \n*** \n\n\n\n\nMon devoir de ne pas rester silencieux \nUn documentaire du politicien et historien russe emprisonné Vladimir Kara-Murza\, avec introduction et discussion d’Evgenia Kara-Murza et du professeur Irwin Cotler. \nLe 18 octobre 2022\, le Centre Raoul Wallenberg pour les droits de la personne (CRWDP) tiendra une projection de et une discussion sur le documentaire « Mon devoir de ne pas rester silencieux »\, un film de Vladimir Kara -Murza à propos du dissident soviétique Père Georgy Edelstein.\, figure de proue de l’opposition russe emprisonnée\, et collaborateur émérite du CRWDP. \nEvgenia Kara-Murza\, épouse de Vladimir Kara-Murza et coordinatrice du plaidoyer pour la « Free Russia Foundation »\, présentera le documentaire et dirigera la discussion avec le président international du CRWDP\, Irwin Cotler. Nous espérons que vous pourrez vous joindre à nous pour cet événement important relatifs au cas et à la cause de Vladimir Kara-Murza\, qui a été arrêté et emprisonné depuis à Moscou pour son opposition publique à la guerre de Vladimir Poutine contre l’Ukraine. \nÀ propos du film : \n« Si nous restons silencieux\, nous participons au mal qui se passe dans notre monde. Je dois dire ce que je pense – et les résultats ne me concernent pas. C’est l’histoire d’un homme remarquable à une époque remarquablement difficile. C’est un film sur la vraie tolérance et la vraie foi\, la relation entre la judéité et le christianisme\, la collaboration entre les dirigeants de l’Église et un État totalitaire\, et l’importance de dire la vérité – quelles qu’en soient les conséquences. Le documentaire a remporté deux prix spéciaux au 26e Festival international du film Stalker (Moscou\, 2020). \nLe film sera projeté en russe avec des sous-titres en anglais. \nDate : 18 octobre 2022 \nHeure : 17h00 \nLieu : 180\, rue Wellington\, pièce 325\, Ottawa (Ontario)
