Screening of a moving film documentary
03.06.2024
Approximately 50 people, including heads of missions from the European Union, Great Britain, Japan, Korea, Kuwaiti media journalists, and local residents, attended the screening of the documentary film "20 Days in Mariupol" at the Polish Embassy in Kuwait. This film, awarded multiple times including the Pulitzer Prize, by Ukrainian journalist Mstyslav Chernov, depicts the ruthlessness and brutality of Russian aggression against Ukraine, the suffering of the civilian population, and the drama of the systematically destroyed city. It presents a moving picture of the war, incomprehensible and senseless to both Ukrainians and the film's viewers.
After the film ended, the audience remained silent for a while before breaking into applause, deeply moved by the images presented. The "war" nature of the screening was intensified by a photographic exhibition showing the destruction of Ukrainian towns and villages by Russian aggressors. The film screening, held on June 3 this year, was organized in cooperation with the embassies of Ukraine and the USA.
