Кино Ukrainian Voices: National Competition and New Faces Kyiv 2023-10-05 17:00:00

A program that brings together fresh works by both professional Ukrainian authors and promising newcomers or those whose works have not been presented to the general public.

"In heaven that's all they talk about — the ocean..."
And on earth, all the talk is about war. We try to run away from it. To protect ourselves from terrible thoughts. To close our eyes to obituaries. However, it is everywhere, now it permeates our entire being. C`est la vie — you can't run away and you can't hide. This is what this year's Ukrainian competition is about. It is about war in all its ugly manifestations—about horror, rage, and separation. About the struggle that unites the whole country. About pain, which is different for everyone. To live, to accept, and to survive. And always remember.
