Month of May videos with stars. Opening of the exhibition "The Month of May" in the Open Air Gallery on Tverskoy Boulevard

From May 8, the exhibition "The Month of May" opens at the Gallery on Tverskoy Boulevard dedicated to the Day Victory. The exposition is organized with the support of the Immortal Regiment of Russia All-Russian Public Movement, the ProLab Producer Center and the Follow Me Digital Creative Agency.

The project is named so for a reason. The reason for the massive patriotic star "uprising" was Yulia Parshut's song "The Month of May", which became the winner of the Immortal Regiment International Music Song Contest. This song was written by Yulia Parshuta's father about his mother, Yulia's grandmother, who was a driver at the front. Yulia's grandmother went to the front at the age of twenty-one and went through the whole war. It was her story that formed the basis of the song “The Month of May”, and also served as the beginning of a large-scale project, and maybe even a whole movement that unites eras and generations!

The stars who took part in the project so deeply and organically got used to the role of their heroic ancestors that the famous Moscow photographer Pavel Izrin created artistic images of war heroes, capturing a rare moment of the actor's immersion in the role of his hero. It was these best moments of filming mini-movies that became the basis of the presented photo exhibition.

The first exhibition venue where the project will be presented will be the Gallery on Tverskoy Boulevard Alley, the only open-air art photo gallery in Moscow, created by the ProLab Producer Center to showcase the best photo projects exclusively by Russian authors.

The project participants are: Anna Khilkevich, Sati Kazanova, Victoria Bonya, Anna Semenovich, Nelli Ermolaeva, Irena Ponaroshku, Aiza Anokhina, Nathan, Alexander Sokolovsky, Diana Melison, Evelina Bledans, Timur Batrutdinov, Gohar Avetisyan, Ida Galich, Kirill Popelnyuk (ORLANDO) , Vasily and Yulia Smolny, Daria and Sergey Pynzar, Ksenia Borodina and her husband Kurban Omarov.

Photo exhibition dedicated to the Victory Day in the Great Patriotic War 1941-1945, aroused the indignation of many Moscow veterans. Over the past month, photos of Russian show business stars in the form of fighting heroes have been shown on Tverskoy Boulevard of the capital. Sati Kazanova, Anna Semenovich, Ksenia Borodina with her husband Kurban Omarov, Yulia Parshuta, Evelina Bledans, Irena Ponaroshku, Timur Batrudinov, Anna Khilkevich and others became participants in the May Month project. As a result, the star project “The Month of May” was called bad taste and self-promotion on a sacred topic.

The exhibition evoked negative responses from veterans of wars, local military conflicts, their families and families of fallen defenders of the Fatherland. This was told by the publication "Veteranskie Vesti". Muscovites and guests of the city considered some of the images presented in the photo to be comical and parodic. The glamorous faces of the stars, expensive manicures and hairstyles, according to some viewers, do little to reflect the tragedy of the war and the human destinies of that time.

As journalist Vitaly Ragulin told Reedus, he made a clear decision from conversations with veterans - frankly, many of them did not like the photo exhibition.

I talked to veterans of the Afghan war, the Korean war, the war in Tajikistan, and everyone has a negative attitude towards this exhibition. There were projects in Moscow when they hung out historical photos It makes people happy. And this glamor is just awful. If these stars wanted to promote themselves, they could spend a subbotnik at mass graves or give money for work on the restoration of monuments, for organizations that are engaged in the search and reburial of soldiers who are still lying in the forests. I looked at the project videos, and what they did [within the framework of the exhibition] is not at all patriotic and I don’t see any respect for memory in this. This is my opinion and the opinion of many combat veterans with whom I spoke," Ragulin emphasized.

Photo exhibition "It was the month of May" - a project of photographer Pavel Izrin. The exposition was organized with the support of the All-Russian Public Movement "Immortal Regiment of Russia" and was positioned as a project that "worthyly transmits the chronicle of those events from generation to generation, preserving the patriotic heritage and memory of veterans, increasing the scale of solemn events dedicated to the Victory."

I wonder how long they will talk about the topic of the Great Patriotic War, turning it into an absurd clowning or some regular commercial projects with the participation of "pop and movie stars"? Not enough nauseating concerts and pompous parades? When will all this bullshit finally end?

In Moscow, on Tverskoy Boulevard, a photo exhibition called "The Month of May" is taking place. Here is what the organizers say:

"In honor of Victory Day, the stars of Russian show business united and took part in the unique project "The Month of May". Ksenia Borodina and Kurban Omarov, Anna Khilkevich, Victoria Bonya, Anna Semenovich, Timur Batrutdinov, Sati Kazanova and other celebrities posed for a photo shoot in the military in uniform and with arms in hand, to remember the efforts of the Soviet people to defeat fascist Germany.

After reading this release, I want to swear dirty.

Meanwhile, even the veterans themselves are outraged by such a disgrace and have already written more than a dozen appeals to Veteran News. And here is what my friend Vitaly said dervishv Ragulin, who knows firsthand what real fighting is:

"I walked along the alley of Tverskoy Boulevard and was horrified when I saw these photos! The participants of the action seemed to have seen enough of American films. You wanted to salute the feat of the people in the Victory over fascism, but it all turned out very horribly! The photos are of high quality, but they do not cause me pride. Better help the remaining veterans, spend a subbotnik on mass graves, and not fool around in front of the camera in someone else's uniform and with other people's orders!"

I don’t know if the organizers of this whole photo booth wanted “the best way” or (most likely) the exclusively material component was tritely persecuted, but it turned out exactly that “as always”. Moreover, every year the victorious frenzy takes on more and more ridiculous and sophisticated forms. Isn't it time to introduce a law on insulting not only believers, but also those who participated in numerous armed conflicts, including those who survived those terrible years of 1941-45?
