Freedom on Fire: Ukraine’s Fight for Freedom
Evgeny Afineevsky
Ukraine - 2022 - 116’ - Venice IFF 2022, Toronto FF 2022
The film describes the terrible reality of the fratricidal war started by Vladimir Putin. This is a story of the courage of the Ukrainian people – the demonstrators show an amazing ability to unite as a nation and defend the sovereignty of their country, showing compassion and resilience even when surrounded by death, destruction and unfathomable war crimes. The personal stories of citizens, children, soldiers, doctors, the elderly, journalists, religious leaders and foreign volunteers write this diary of humanity for the millions of people whose lives have been turned upside down by the eight-year conflict.
The screening of the film is organised in partnership with the European Parliament in Bulgaria. Free admission.
