The Soviet Story Shows Reality of Communism’s Crimes

          The Toronto Premiere of the award-winning documentary film “The Soviet Story” was a huge success. The screening took place on January 31 at the Ukrainian Cultural Centre on Christie Street, attended by an estimated 400 - 500 people.

Edvins Snore, the director and writer of the film, was present at the screening. During the question and answer (Q&A) session after the film showing, 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 sponsored by the Ukrainian Canadian Congress – Toronto Branch, in cooperation with the League of Ukrainian Canadians, the League of Ukrainian Canadian Women, the Ukrainian Students’ Club at York University and Tribute to Liberty.
