Na Chornykh Lyadakh is a Belarusian drama film based on two short stories by Vasil Bykau, "On Black Slash-and-Burn Fields" and "Before the End".

Production and distribution

The premiere of the movie was scheduled for soon after the controversial referendum held by the authoritarian pro-Russian president Aliaksandr Lukashenka, but never took place as the only copy of the film had allegedly been stolen before the event. The copy was allegedly found later, but the film was shown only to limited audience.

According to media, the film was banned by Lukashenka's chief ideologist of that time, Vladimir Zametalin. Valery Ponomaryov, the film's director, was banned from further work in the film industry. The movie has been distributed illegally through VHS and DVD in Belarus and abroad.

On Black Slash-and-Burn Fields was allegedly invited to participate in several international film festivals but Belarusfilm as the official right holder did not respond to the invitations.
