Museum of Free Belarus Published a Video Recorded by Mikita Melkazyarau Donating His Crocs to the Exhibition
Donating the yellow Crocs, Mikita Melkazyarau recorded a video for the museum (as required by the rules), in which he told the story of the exhibit. This recording, made in the summer of 2025, was published by the museum for the first time.
In the video, Mikita said that he bought the yellow Crocs in Minsk at the beginning of the pandemic, moved into emigration with them, and with them, the project "Zhyccio-Malina" also began.
«I'm not very conceited, but this is as a joke, because my wife promised to kill me if I didn't get these Crocs out of the house. I wrote here and said that, in principle, there were a lot of them in "Malina".
«Malina» is a significant project. I understand that this sounds very immodest, but it's a fact. A very important project for the Belarusian democratic space. That's why I can donate these Crocs. And also, for all five years that we've been filming "Malina", they've been in the shot. And Nasta Roudha once said during an interview, "This is a legendary pair of shoes." So I hope this will be a more or less distinctive exhibit in this museum. And finally, this museum will move to Belarus," — said Mikita.
Also, in 2024, a football cup was transferred to the museum after the spring draw of the Bemovsky League, in which Mikita Melkazyarau received the title of best defender.
