The movie "The Secret of the Old Town" was produced by a local Vitebsk television company. It is a short movie (15 minutes). The story is fiction but the documentary parts are true. The filming is done from a helicopter, which shows a panoramic view of the city and adds effect. It begins with a short tour of the city, which includes historical and architectural explanations. The dramatic episodes in the cities history are used as a background for the story. Thus, the pagan fire making, the meeting of Princess Olga and Princess Predslava, Lev Sapega’s visit, some episodes of Marc Chagall’s life, and other events are shown. The film ends with a view of the Vitebsk’s center.
Here are some photographs from the movie:
