Extras involved in the exterior scenes for the propaganda movie had to wait for the shooting freezing in trucks near the pedagogical university building.

Charter97.org has learnt it from activist Andrei Kim. He posted a video showing six military trucks and several buses that carried extra actors to Minsk's central street.

“We were passing by Independence Avenue and noticed extras preparing for the shooting. It's interesting that they were freezing in military trucks before the filming,” Andrei Kim wrote.

The Belarusian propaganda announced last year that a film to respond to Viva Belarus! movie would be made.

Siarhei Zhdanovich, who is known as a producer of the UNDP series Above the Sky, and his company were chosen by the Belarusian Ministry of Culture and Lukashenka's administration to shoot the film Square of Love (Abel), which is supposed to become an official response to the movie Viva Belarus! by Krzysztof Lukaszewicz on Franak Viachorka's script.

The film's budget is about 2 million dollars.
