Weißrussland. Narcotisation and authoritarianism: A film about the drug war in Belarus (Video)
The film tells a story about the anti-drug law enforcement practice, prison conditions in the penitentiary institutions of Belarus, and everyday life challenges that former prisoners and people who use drugs face. To convey to the viewer the origins of stereotypes, numerous clips from the anti-drug videos of the USSR, Russia, and Belarus are used in the film. (Drug Reporter, Ungarn, 01.04.2019, Video, 43:13)
