One Day in Ukraine / День Українського Добровольця (Ukraine / Poland 2022)
Documentary, 77 min, en subtitles
Directed by Volodymyr Tykhyy
Written by Volodymyr Tykhyy
This film plays out in Ukraine on a single day: March 14, 2022, the 2,944th day of the Russian-Ukrainian War. In the last few weeks, intense warfare has resulted in a surreal mixture of places and people. This post-apocalyptic world reveals new qualities and roles. Thousands of Kyivans have moved to live in subway stations. The capital city's previously calm suburbs have been transformed into battle zones of destruction and plundering by Russian occupiers. People no longer live in the rhythm of "workdays" and "weekends". The film presents this day in the lives of a pop music star, video engineer, historian, art restorer, polar researcher, and pensioner, who were all forced to radically change their lives.
