The fundraising on the Internet for the television parsley Vladimir Mirzoev and Viktor Shenderovich was announced.
The play “Parsley”, whose protagonist “has an obvious political prototype”, Schenderovich wrote six years ago, but not a single theater wanted to put it. The authors of the future television test consider the crowdsourcing campaign the most correct and effective means of financing their project. According to Vladimir Mirzoev, "it’s a shame to beg money from those who manage our taxes in their selfish interests."
“These gentlemen love to talk about morality, patriotism, and upbringing of youth. - The director writes on the campaign page for the collection of funds on the site Planeta.ru . - The trouble is that they themselves are carriers of very specific ethics. Lies, manipulation, turning the facts inside out, revival of totalitarian mythology, glorification of executioners - all this creates an extremely difficult atmosphere in the country. ”
Vladimir Mirzoev addresses the future spectators of the television test: “Your support for an independent project is a chance for all of us to maintain freedom of thought and freedom of speech, watch a living movie, and not a bureaucratic ordered dead man.”
“If everything turns out, already in the spring of next year you can see the film-or maybe by that time it will become possible and show it somewhere on the big screen in Moscow ...”, Viktor Shenderovich shares plans.
103 days remain before the end of the campaign, the required amount is 5.8 million rubles. At 16:20 Moscow time on October 2, more than 120 thousand rubles have already been transferred to create a television attitude.
