‘War Note’, UKR, 2020, directed by Roman Liubiy, 72', OV engl. subtitles
(documentary)
Personal videos from the phones, camcorders, cameras, and GoPros of Ukrainian soldiers are woven into a surreal journey to the front line of the war with Russia. The film shows a bizarre world whose laws are quite different from what we are used to. The behavior is different, the relationships unfold differently, and the humor takes on different notes. The heroes wake up and fall asleep, rejoice and cry, always sensing that the recording may end at any moment.
‘Territory of Empty Windows’, UKR, 2020, directed by Zoya Laktionova, 10', OV engl. subtitles
(short / documentary)
War and abandoned ecology are two themes that permeate the everyday life of Mariupol residents. World War II and the local Azovstal steel plant were the reason Zoya’s family moved to Mariupol. And the war with Russia, along with environmental consequences of the plant’s operation, have played a dramatic role in her life.
