The Swiss Cinematheque and the ECAL Film Department invite you to an evening of support for the Ukrainian people on Friday 11th March at 7pm at ECAL.
In the presence of Mykyta Kryvosheiev, director, editor, graduate and assistant at ECAL, who will speak after the screening of Sergei Loznitsa's film "Donbass".
"Donbass" by Sergei Loznitsa - 121min - 2018
In the Donbass, a region of Eastern Ukraine, a hybrid war takes place, involving an open armed conflict alongside killings and robberies on a mass scale perpetrated by separatist gangs.
In the Donbass, war is called peace, propaganda is uttered as truth and hatred is declared to be love.
A journey through the Donbass unfolds as a chain of curious adventures, where the grotesque and drama are as intertwined as life and death.
This is not a tale of one region, one country or one political system. It is about a world, lost in post-truth and fake identities. It is about each and every one of us.
Admission is free, but a contribution to La Chaîne du Bonheur is strongly encouraged, via the attached link as well as via a QR code shown at the beginning and end of the session.
