Velkommen til et filmprogram med fire ukrainske samtidsfilmer.

I solidaritet med ukrainske filmskapere tilbyr l’Institut français et utvalg ukrainske samtidsfilmer ment for gratis visninger internasjonalt for 2023 og 2024. Disse filmene illustrerer vitaliteten til den ukrainske filmindustrien de siste ti årene, da den har fått en stadig større tilstedeværelse i prestisjetunge utenlandske festivaler slik som Cannes og Berlin. Utvalget understreker spesielt den dynamiske ukrainske dokumentarscenen.
Filmene er gjort tilgjengelige takket være et samarbeid mellom det franske instituttet og det ukrainske instituttet, med støtte fra Nordens Hus Reykjavik, den franske ambassaden og Alliance Française.
Programmet er kuratert av Yuliia Saphia. Alle filmer har ukrainsk tale og engelsk undertekst.

The only means for Nastya’s family to survive is the scrap metal they scavenge while under fire. Senya is seven years old. He is a first-grader. In the seven years of his life, he has seen seven years of war and not a day of peace. Senya likes to climb on the boney pile to watch the sunset. His stepfather dig graves to earn money for a new suit and backpack for Senya. This is a film about the children who live in the war zone in Ukraine.
