In [[Soviet Union|Soviet]] times, the studio was dubbed ''Partizanfilm'', due to the large output of films portraying the [[Soviet partisan]]'s struggle against [[Nazi Germany|Nazi]] occupation. The studio was, however, also renowned for its [[children's film]]s. The studio has to date made 131 animated films.<ref>[http://animator.ru/db/?ver=eng&p=show_studia&sid=28&sp=2 Chronological list of Belarusfilm animated films] at [[animator.ru]]</ref> Its first project was a coproduction with [[Soyuzmultfilm]] in 1963; a [[stop motion]] feature film called ''Attention! The Magician is in the City!''<ref>[http://animator.ru/db/?ver=eng&p=show_film&fid=2371 ''Attention! The Magician is in the City!''] at animator.ru</ref> Consistent animated film production, however, did not begin until 1972. Most of the output has been in [[Russian language|Russian]] rather than [[Belarusian language|Belarusian]]. Belarusfilm is also a co-organizer of the [[Listapad]] film festival held in [[Minsk]], [[Belarus]] in November. Among the early, [[History of the Soviet Union|Soviet-era]] [[Film_director|directors]] who oversaw films for the studio are: [[Aleksandr_Faintsimmer|Alexander Faintsimmer]], [[Oleg Frelikh]], [[Vladimir Gardin]], [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q2024926 Vladimir Korsh-Sablin], [[Grigori Roshal]], [[Boris Shpis]], [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q3920648 Yuri Tarich] and [[Mikhail Verner]]. In 2019, a large part of the movie ''[[Squad (2020 film)|Squad]]'' was shot at Belarusfilm. It is the first [[Bollywood]] film to be shot in Belarus. == Selected films == ===Soviet Union=== * [[1926 in film|1926]] [[Forest_Story|''Tale of the Woods or Forest Story'']] * [[1927 in film|1927]] ''[[Prostitute (1927 film)|Prostitute]]'' * [[1928 in film|1928]] ''[[Kastus Kalinovskiy (film)|Kastus Kalinovsky]]'' * [[1928 in film|1928]] ''[[His Excellency (1928 film)|His Excellency]]'' * [[1929 in film|1929]] [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0216718/ ''See You Tomorrow''] * [[1930 in film|1930]] [https://web.archive.org/web/20180114020618/http://www.all-films.com/gb/92819 ''Hatred''] * [[1930 in film|1930]] [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0021336/ ''Sasha''] * [[1933 in film|1933]] ''[[The Return of Nathan Becker]]'' * [[1933 in film|1933]] [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0024438/ ''The First Platoon''] * [[1934 in film|1934]] ''[[Lieutenant Kijé (film)|Lieutenant Kijie]]'' * [[1936 in film|1936]] '' [[Late for a Date]]'' * [[1936 in film|1936]] ''[[Seekers of Happiness]]'' * [[1937 in film|1937]] ''[https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0128959/?ref_=nv_sr_1 ''Beethoven Concerto'']'' * [[1938 in film|1938]] [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0030428/fullcredits?ref_=tt_ov_st_sm ''The Bear''] * [[1938 in film|1938]] [[Men of the Sea|''Men of the Sea a.k.a.
