Urgent Call for the Release of Belarusian Filmmaker Andrei Gnyot

Arrested by the Serbian authorities, Belarusian filmmaker/activist Andrei Gnyot is currently imprisoned in Serbia with the immediate danger of being extradited to Belarus where he is facing imprisonment, torture and even the possibility of a death penalty. Having been alarmed about his case by our colleagues at the Belarusian Independent Film Academy, the European Film Academy protests vehemently against his arrest and calls upon the Serbian authorities to immediately and unconditionally release Andrei Gnyot.

We stand with our Belarusian colleagues, declare our full and heartfelt solidarity, and join them in their call:

“The Belarusian Independent Film Academy demands that filmmaker and activist Andrei Gnyot be released from Serbian prison and not be extradited back to Belarus. In Belarus he faces imprisonment, torture and even the death penalty.

Andrei Gnyot is known for making documentary footage during the Belarus 2020 protests and recording athletes’ appeals for free and fair elections. He is being prosecuted by the Belarusian regime for these activities. Andrei was arrested in Serbia because Interpol has accepted the request of the Belarusian regime to search for him. Later Interpol cancelled the search request; however, Serbia did not release Andrei, and the danger is that he could be extradited any moment.

Andrei Gnyot is recognised by international human rights organisations as a political prisoner.

The Belarusian regime continues to persecute active citizens years after the rigged presidential elections in 2020 to destroy any manifestation of dissent. Searches, arrests, and torture continue unabatedly in Belarus.

No civilized country or international organization co-operates with Belarus in the search for and extradition of fugitive politically active Belarusians.

We urge international organizations, and human rights groups to appeal to the Serbian authorities to prevent the extradition of Andrei Gnyot to Belarus and to secure his immediate release. Time is of the essence; act now to save Andrei Gnyot.”

Deeply worried about his well-being, the European Film Academy supports this statement and calls on the Serbian authorities to immediately and unconditionally release Andrei Gnyot. We encourage all film and cultural institutions around the world to do the same.
