Ukrainian film has gained worldwide attention in recent years, even though film production could not be more difficult under the current war conditions. Many filmmakers continue to produce - in Ukraine and abroad - and in the process, a wide variety of approaches to the culture, history and reality of life of a diverse Ukrainian population are being created. Whether documentary or feature film, drama or comedy, blockbuster or independent cinema - the film selection of the Ukrainian Film Days 2024 shows the broad spectrum of Ukrainian film and the creative minds behind it, who have more than earned the worldwide praise from critics and international awards.
Intercepted is a journey through Ukraine that reveals the banality of the evil behind the Russian invasion by juxtaposing two realities. Viewers see images of destruction that simultaneously radiate a hopeful calm. Running in parallel is a soundtrack of fragments of intercepted telephone conversations between Russian soldiers, mostly with their partners or mothers, who talk about the war crimes they have committed.
