"Patriotic Song Contest": Presentation of the Laureates

Lviv Television, September 29, 1970. Documentary propaganda film "The Nadbuzha Tragedy" about the activities of the OUN and UPA in 1944–1945 in the Nadbuzha villages of the Lviv region.

On the video: introductory speech; monument to Soviet soldiers who died in clashes with the rebels; the city of Busk; identification of the bodies of women and children; burials; Ukrainian nationalists in emigration, photographs, propaganda appeals; interviews with villagers; court materials; Soviet newspapers.

The film uses photographs of OUN members, as well as a video recording from the 1946 trial of Stepan Chuchman ("Bereza"), Leontiy Potsiluyk ("Yastrub"), Volodymyr Oliynyk ("Holodomor"), Andriy Moroz ("Bayrak"), and Pavlo Chuchman ("Benito").

Contains sensitive footage.

Note: The events of 1944–1945 in the villages of the Lviv region near the Buzhany River took place in conditions of armed confrontation between Soviet security forces and the underground of the OUN and UPA units during the restoration of Soviet power. The Soviet interpretation of these events was formed within the framework of the ideological policy of the USSR and presented the Ukrainian liberation movement exclusively as "bandit" or "criminal". Modern historical research based on a comprehensive analysis of sources of various origins considers the activities of the OUN and UPA as part of the anti-colonial and national liberation struggle for Ukrainian statehood.

Host — Andriy Kalyniv.

Reference: The Lviv landfill for solid waste in the village of Velyki Hrybovychi is the main garbage disposal site in Lviv, which has been operating since 1960 and for decades has been characterized by critical overload and environmental risks. Despite repeated discussions of the reclamation project and the construction of a waste processing plant in the 1990s–2000s, systematic modernization measures were not implemented, which led to an increase in technogenic hazards. The untimely implementation of reclamation works was one of the factors that later contributed to the occurrence of a large-scale fire and collapse at the landfill in 2016.
