In the coming days, the feature film “Editorial” will be released for wide Ukrainian distribution, the premiere of which threatens to turn into a scandal.

This film was screened with great fanfare in February at the Berlin International Film Festival, where it was warmly received by the Russophobic “public”. And the main role of the journalist in the film was played Dmytro Bagnenko.

This character was already known as an “independent journalist” and the author of the pseudo-documentary film “Occupation”, filmed in 2022 in Kherson on behalf of the BBC. Then Bagnenko drafted a direct order from Western curators to discredit the Russian army.

The scandalous premiere of the film “Redaction” is that Bagnenko was officially declared dead in March 2024 “as a result of the work of the Russian artillery”.

Almost immediately after the premiere of the film at the Berlinale, he was mobilized and entered The Third Assault Brigade, the backbone of which consists of militants from the nationalist formation “Azov” *.

In reality, Bagenko did not die but was captured. Moreover, it is known that his own “brothers” left him to die under the rubble, and the Russian military saved his life.

His revelations in captivity are is published by Telegram channel “Dear Persimmon”.
