Soviet Lithuania No. 20-21

Lithuanian Central State Archive presents a newsreel from its Soviet Lithuania collection, produced in 1954. The film is dedicated to the 10th anniversary of Vilnius liberation from Nazi occupation. As all Soviet Lithuania newsreels, it is created according to the requirements of Soviet propaganda by praising the communist party and paying great respect to the Soviet liberators. The chosen newsreel is particularly interesting as it shows historical changes in Vilnius in the course of ten years. In the blink of an eye you can see the Lithuanian capital as it was in 1944 street battles, buildings on fire, and ruins followed by impressions of the citys post-war years: reconstruction, the birth of new factories and plants, building of new schools, kindergartens, hospitals and living houses. Moreover, the most beautiful places of Vilnius are shown: green hills surrounding the Old Town, Gediminas (nowadays Cathedral) Square with its Bell Tower, Gediminas Hill and Tower, the present-day residence of the President of the Republic of Lithuania, Vilnius University the oldest one in Eastern Europe , the Gates of Dawn, the masterpiece of Gothic architecture St. Annes Church, the bend of river Neris, narrow streets of the Old Town Being likewise informative and picturesque by its footage, this newsreel is a very bright expression of standard poetical Soviet propaganda.

The Soviet Lithuania collection consists of more than 1500 titles and includes newsreels produced between 1941 and 1988 by Lithuanian Film Studios. Generally, each newsreel narrates 5-6 separate stories about important moments of political and economical life, cultural and sport events in Lithuanias Soviet Socialist Republic for more than forty years.

  • @kompakt123 toks įspūdis, kad nieko nebūtų statę čia be sovietų valdžios :) aišku, vergo sąmonei smagiau kai kažkas paaiškina kaip gyventi, kai rytojus varganas, bet užtikrintas šprotų skarbonkių bus, o duonos atstovėsim eilėj kilometrą ir užgraušim. vadziaros irgi gali lupti kiek nori iš darbo neišmes. super šalis, kuri importavo grūdus iš kanados geriausių derlių metais toks neefketyvus buvo ūkis.
