Egor Krid Apologizes for Film Poster Longsleeve
I did not watch and was not aware of the film 'Look and See', so I could not know that the image on the clothing referenced its poster. The clip featuring Creed in a long-sleeve shirt with an image of the main character from the famous military drama Elem Klimov's 'Look and See' was released last week.
Consensus
- Egor Krid publicly apologized for appearing in a music video wearing a longsleeve with an image of the poster from the film 'I Go and See'.
- The longsleeve was purchased in a store and not intended to carry any political or historical message.
- Krid stated he had never seen or heard of the film 'I Go and See' before.
- All scenes with the longsleeve in the music video were blurred in a rush.
- The film 'I Go and See' depicts events during World War II involving Nazi German atrocities in Belarus in 1943.
- The image on the longsleeve features the main character, Flera, from the film.
- The controversy was sparked by public reaction and criticism from Yekaterina Mizulina, head of the League of Safe Internet.
