Filmscreening »It's about Life« Day 2

»someone else's story« presents a curated selection of films by Ukrainian contemporary artists. The programme accentuates someone else’s experience and manifests the voices that usually remain behind the scenes. Observation of the media and thorough research underlie the selected films that transform personal stories and memories into complex narratives lighting up social and political realia today in a globalized perspective.  

Day 2 features a selection of films by ruїns collective — Kyiv-based film and art union established in 2017 and from 2019 till 2021 mostly represented by Elias Parvulesco and Teta Tsybulnyk. Reflecting upon the complexities of the world, in the selected films artists think of history and memory in its connection to economy and ecology through the prism of human and non-human agents. They explore the landscape in its various forms as a bearer of different types of knowledge that influences our imagination and identity. 

All the films are in Ukrainian or Russian with English subtitles.
