Toronto Premiere of "The Soviet Story" a Huge Success!
The Toronto Premiere of the award-winning documentary film “The Soviet
Story” was a huge success. The screening, which took place January 31st at the Ukrainian Cultural Centre on Christie Street, was
attended by an estimated 400 - 500 people.
Edvins Snore, the director and writer of the film, was present at the
screening. During a Q&A session after the film many in attendance
voiced their gratitude for the work Mr. Snore has done to educate the
public about the crimes of Communism by making his film. Mr. Snore met
and talked with members of the audience and media at a reception
following the Q&A.
After the screening Mr. Snore told us “I am very happy with having met
with the Ukrainian and other communities during my visit to Canada, and
also very impressed by how large the audience was, and what a positive
response there was to the film.”
The screening was co-sponsored by Tribute to Liberty and the Ukrainian
Canadian Congress in Toronto, with a great deal of work and support
from the League of Ukrainian Canadians and the League of Ukrainian
Canadian Women, the Ukrainian Student’s Club at York University, and
Kontakt Ukrainian TV Network.
Tribute to Liberty, whose mission is to establish a memorial to the
victims of totalitarian Communism in Canada’s National Capital Region,
and to educate the public about Communism’s crimes, is an enthusiastic
supporter of “The Soviet Story,” a film that does a phenomenal job of
bringing the reality of Communism’s crimes to light.
A new version of “The Soviet Story” is now available—with subtitles in
30 languages—and can be purchased through the film’s web site, or
through
Amazon.com. For more information about “The Soviet Story” visit: www.sovietstory.com.
