‘Welcome to Chechnya’ Director David France Documents Horrifying Persecution of LGBTQ Chechens
在大卫法国的两周内，他在《纽约客》上阅读了一篇关于车臣LGTBQ人民迫害的文章，他正坐在前往莫斯科的飞机上。在那儿，他首先遇到了在他的新纪录片中扮演的男人和女人。到Chechnya，”，星期二在HBO上首映。俄罗斯自治区总统拉姆赞·卡德罗夫（Ramzan Kadyrov）于2017年颁布了一项竞选活动，以发现，监禁，酷刑，有时杀死LGBTQ车臣人。许多幸存下监禁的人逃到了莫斯科，他们在安全的房子里住在其他国家的政治庇护所。停止的是，关于世界媒体的曝光并非没有关于欧洲领导人的愤怒的表达，对特朗普政府几乎没有默默的愤怒的表达，他们做了任何事情来减慢车臣领导人进行的竞选活动。 AgAinst LGBTQ社区，”法国告诉综艺。“实际上，俄罗斯的LGBTQ运动被留下来，试图对那里发生的事情进行某种反应。他们组合的是搜救行动，就像您在第二次世界大战电影中想象的那样。我很生气，因为他们被迫自己做这一切，而且世界并没有关注和对车臣政府施加压力。“电影中的其中包括大卫·伊斯蒂夫（David Isteev），他通过俄罗斯LGBT网络和莫斯科LGBT+计划中心主任奥尔加·巴拉诺瓦（Olga Baranova）领导救援任务。然后是马克西姆·拉普诺夫第一次对话，让我拍摄他，他是一个有魅力的人物，是一个艺人，”法国说。 “他为人们带来欢乐做了自己的工作。当他在格罗兹尼（Grozny）的街道上被捕时，他一直在出售气球艺术。他将气球扭曲成这些精致的雕塑，并将其出售给车臣Grozny主要购物中心前面的人们。那就是安全人员抓住他的地方。因此，当我遇到他时，他是一个开放而慷慨的人物，让我以最深刻的方式与他分享他的旅程。纽约市的22名LGBTQ活动家。他解释说：“我们所做的是从深果界借钱并找到这种社会正义的用途。” “这项技术使我们能够伸展面孔……在电影中拍摄的图像上。面部移动完全相同。它微笑着，以完全相同的方式哭泣，但这是别人的脸。”尽管拉普诺夫（Lapunov）的身份在这部电影的大部分时间里都保持秘密，但当他去法院起诉俄罗斯政府未能保护他免受律师辩称的非法逮捕，拘留，酷刑和歧视时，他的真实面孔被证明。有很多人根本没有发现，但是该文档包括令人不安的和图形镜头，这些镜头被殴打和折磨。法国说：“当我们得知那个镜头时，令人震惊。” “这是由犯下这些罪行的人们拍摄为奖杯的镜头。他们是这些可怕的事件中的纪念品，而且也是可交付成果。他们被派往命令链上的WhatsApp团体，以便Ramzan Kadyrov知道他的命令正在执行。”奖杯有证据。”他继续说道。 “这是由自己做的人所记录的，这些人也否认了公共论坛说，这种情况正在发生。然而，这是证明。”法国在莫斯科和车臣度过了大约18个月的拍摄。法国说：“这是一场持续不断的人类罪，尚未引起应有的愤怒。”法国在2012年的《流行病》初期获得了奥斯卡提名“如何生存瘟疫”的奥斯卡提名。 。 “没有这种愤怒，它将继续前进。但是我也希望人们知道全球LGBTQ人的条件是什么……仍然有70个国家是犯罪，其中八个国家以及其他几个半自动区域等其他半自动区域是值得死刑的罪行。 “一个非常昂贵的提议变得更加昂贵。保持人们隐藏，照顾别人，确保他们的安全和喂养，并与长期以来，医疗保健在他们仍在与外国政府斗争的同时，试图将其敞开，以便向人道主义假释签证进行后门。”法国说。“还为了支持马克斯姆·拉普诺夫及其家人的诉讼。因为他们仍然在安全的房屋中，并且他们仍在追求这项诉讼……没有告诉战斗将持续多久，但从长远来看。今年早些时候参加了Doc的首映式参加圣丹斯电影节。“这让他很高兴，”法国说。“为了感觉到观众对他的故事做出回应，使他充满信心，他做出了自己的牺牲，并且他正在经历，有目的。”
Within two weeks of David France reading an article in The New Yorker about the persecution of LGTBQ people in Chechnya, he was on a plane headed to Moscow.
It's there that he first met the men and women who are featured in his new documentary "Welcome to Chechnya,” which premieres Tuesday on HBO. Ramzan Kadyrov, the president of the autonomous region of Russia, enacted a campaign in 2017 to find, imprison, torture and sometimes kill LGBTQ Chechens. Many who survived imprisonment have fled to Moscow, where they live in a safe house while seeking political asylum in other countries.
“What I learned from that story in The New Yorker was that the crimes that had been exposed earlier in the year hadn't stopped, that nothing about the exposure in the world media, nothing about the expressions of outrage from European leaders, nothing about the meek, near silence from the Trump administration had done anything to slow the campaign that was being carried out by the leadership in Chechnya against the LGBTQ community,” France tells Variety. “And in fact, the Russian LGBTQ movement was left all alone to try and fashion some sort of response to what was going on there. And what they had put together was a search and rescue operation, like something that you would imagine in a World War II movie. And I was outraged that they were being forced to do this all on their own, and that the world wasn't coming to pay attention to and put pressure against the Chechen government. “
Among those in the film are David Isteev, who leads the rescue missions through the Russian LGBT Network and Olga Baranova, director of the Moscow Community Center for LGBT+ Initiatives. And then there’s Maxim Lapunov, who came to Moscow after being released from prison, where he was tortured for several weeks in 2017. Chechen authorities let him go because he is not ethnically Chechen.
“I was told that Maxim had agreed, even on the first conversation, to allow me to film him and that he was a charismatic character, a person who is an entertainer,” France said. “He made it his job to bring joy to people. When he was captured on the streets of Grozny, he had been selling balloon art. He was twisting balloons into these elaborate sculptures and selling them to people in front of the main mall in Grozny, Chechnya. That's where he was seized by the security agents. So when I met him, he was an open, generous figure who allowed me to share his journey with him in the most profound way.”
In order to hide the identities of the residents in the safe house, France used technology to replace their faces with those of 22 LGBTQ activists in New York City. “What we did was to borrow from the world of deepfakes and find this social justice use for it,” he explained. “This technology allowed us to just stretch the faces…over the images that I shot in the film. The face moves exactly the same way. It smiles, it cries in exactly the same way, but it is somebody else's face.”
While Lapunov's identity is kept secret this way through most of the film, his real face is shown when he goes to court to sue the Russian government for failing to protect him from what his lawyers argue was unlawful arrest, detention, torture and discrimination.
There are many people not identified at all, but the doc includes disturbing and graphic footage of them being beaten and tortured. “When we learned of that footage, it was shocking,” France said. “It's footage that was shot as trophies by the people who committed those crimes. They were keepsakes from these horrible events, and they were also deliverables. They were sent over WhatsApp groups up the chain of command, so that Ramzan Kadyrov would know that his orders are being carried out."
“And when you saw the footage, I realized that I wanted to take that away from them, and turn their trophies into evidence,” he continued. “This is documented by the people who did it themselves, and those same people have denied in public forum that anything like this is happening there. And yet, here is proof.”
France spent about 18 months filming in Moscow and Chechnya. “Here is an ongoing crime against humanity that has not generated the outrage that it deserves,” said France, who earned an Oscar nomination for “How to Survive a Plague,” his 2012 directing debut about AIDS activists in the early days of the epidemic. “Without that outrage, it will keep going. But I also want people to know what the conditions are for LGBTQ people around the globe…There are still 70 countries where it's a crime to be queer, and eight of those countries, and several other semi-autonomous regions like Chechnya is, consider it a crime worthy of the death penalty.”

As international borders are closed because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the activists in Moscow need even more help. “What was a very expensive proposition has become even more expensive. Keeping people in hiding, taking care of people, keeping them safe and fed, and with medical care for this long extended period, while they're still struggling with foreign governments to try to keep open that back door to humanitarian parole visas,” France said. “And also to support Maxim Lapunov and his family in their lawsuit. Because they are still in safe houses, and they are still pursuing this suit…There’s no telling how long that battle's going to last, but they're in it for the long run.”
Lapunov was able to feel some of that support when he traveled to the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year for the doc’s premiere. “It made him so happy,” France said. “To feel the audience responding to his story gave him confidence that the sacrifices that he’s made, and he’s going through, have a purpose.”
